Sounds to me like the DWARFContext might not have a valid
reference/pointer/whatever to the ObjectFile? Is there a chance the
ObjectFile pointer in the DWARFContext is null?
I'd suggest you poke around in a debugger there to check what state
it's in in a good (non-C-wrapped) example and in the C-wrapped example
to compare/contrast.
