What is a DWARF parser during a debug session gonna do with any of these errors? Emit them in the console? If we have borked DWARF we can’t just emit every error we come across, the user will not like that. If we add error handling, I don’t really plan on integrating it into the LLDB parser, but you seemed to want this so I added it. I personally don’t think it is useful.
