Compile this with -g:
namespace x { int x; }
class y { public: static int x; };
int y::x;
int main() { return x::x; }
Now examine the debug_pubnames section with readelf. I see:
70 main
119 x
130 y::x
However, I expected "x::x"; "y::x" seems correct.
The dwarf spec is a bit weird here:
> In the case of the name of a function member or static data member
> of a C++ structure, class or union, the name presented in the
> .debug_pubnames section is not the simple name given by the
> DW_AT_name attribute of the referenced debugging entry, but rather
> the fully qualified name of the data or function member.
It doesn't mention namespaces. However, this is not very useful;
and perhaps this text is not normative.
