Right, but this presupposes that you're doing it at the right place in
the workflow.

I agree that we should not crash, however, the guard is interesting.

The part that you're dealing with is not part of the debug info
though. It's the normal IR sequence.

I agree with this part, however, you're working around bad IR in the
pass rather than having it fail to load/warn/upgrade/etc and I
disagree with this.
