[llvm-dev] How to resolve debug info forward types

[David Blaikie via llvm-dev]

There are replaceable MD nodes - you could check how Clang does this when
encountering a declaration, then a definition:

struct foo;
void f(foo *) {
}
struct foo {
};
void g(foo) {
}

Should exercise "Build a declaration", "build a definition", "replace
declaration with definition"
