I usually use objdump --dwarf=....
But I am not sure either is a good test...
Well it is, if you do something like I assume gcc does with its
dwarf-strict option.
But that doesn't guarantee much. Since their is plenty of correct dwarf
that gdb does not handle.
So I guess then there is no automated test, that "feeds" gdb, and checks
the results?
