I'm not exactly sure how to parse that question, so sorry if this
isn't an appropriate answer, but I mean something under either test/
or unittests/ that would fail if anyone removed the list or used the
map where they should have used the list. For example, it could llc a
file with several scopes and CHECK that the DW_whatevers appeared in a
particular order. That would overspecify the requirement, I think, and
so would need to be updated any time the logic changed, but it would
fail if the output order depended on anything but the input.
