Sounds good.

To the best of my knowledge, existing code does not change the linkage name field of a DISubprogram once created. You can create a new DISubprogram record with any linkage name you want but bear in mind how the debugger will consume the record. Looks like we are the first one to change existing record which will confuse the debugger.
