Hi Johan,

I think I forgot to respond to this part of your earlier mail:

I very much agree that it may make sense to register debug-info along
with unwind-info.  But it's definitely something that would have to be
developed in collaboration with the gdb folks.  I'd be more than happy
if the gdb developers were interested in this, but I don't have enough
debug-info experience or bandwidth at the moment to tackle this issue
(especially since I'm not confident yet that the dynamic unwind-info
part is fully cooked so, for now, I'd like to take it one step at a
time... ;-).
