Agreed. My patch fixes test cases where DW_AT_MIPS_linkage_name was not generated by gcc, but the patch should be smarter about falling back on DW_AT_MIPS_linkage_name when the correct canonical name cannot be constructed. > On GDB CVS HEAD for gdb.cp/m-static.exp a command `print gnu_obj_4::elsewhere' > works for me as it can find (presumably) the corrent .symtab mangled symbol. > > Sure it would be good to get DW_AT_name fixed in GCC. > -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37982
