Added Roland (now with another email address) to the CC.
Note that we have blown the size of this struct already to support the NVIDIA
extensions :{
The issue here is that we create (very) large arrays of struct Dwarf_Line_s and
we do that eagerly, see bug #27405
So we would like to keep that struct as small as possible.
Another "solution"/workaround would be to just ignore such crazy big
discriminator values and just set them to zero or store them modulo 24 bits
(they are probably still unique then).
