I have updated
https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source/-/merge_requests/683
It should provide the new tag as specified by the DWARF documentation.
(including Dwarf-5 as that was added to FPC).
Given that many debuggers don't yet implement it, or (as gdb) have bugs,
like failing for if the language is Pascal, I propose to add a new dwarf
option.
This also allows it to be combined with the existing -godwarfcpp => in
case of gdb actually of some interest (works for some string types).
As for the name of the option, if there are better ideas....
I also hope that this option (or if preferred an additional extra option
"goDwarfProperty" like "goDwarfWithSets") may be added for the new
property code (which is based on the not yet released DWARF-6).
I would be glad for any feedback on both of those work items.
Thanks
Martin.
