Hi Ben, Hi Frank,

  Right - I have applied the patch to the mainline sources.

  I should note that there is still a case that fails.  If the newly
  loaded debug information contains a .debug_info section with a 
  DW_AT-dwo_name tag, that file will not be loaded.  Ie the patched
  code only recurses through .gnu_debuglink and .gnu_debugaltlink 
  sections.

  Handling a second level DWO_name tag would mean a lot more reworking of
  the code in dwarf.c, so I have left it for now.  If it turns out
  that this situation can arise in real life then please let me know
  (and provide an example) so that I can investigate further.

Cheers
  Nick
