We have customers that rely on the symbol information from the 
"pubnames" section in the DWARF data.  Generation of this information 
was removed in this commit:

     Remove the pubnames section, no one consumes it.

I could submit a patch that brings it back (some tweaks were needed). 
Is this something you could consider?
