Re: [PATCH] Add attribute "artificial"

BTW, if you are *going* to try to reuse DECL_ARTIFICIAL, you shouldn't
have hacks like:

!       /* If DECL_ARTIFICIAL bit is set or "artificial" attribute is
attached
! 	 then add DW_AT_artificial.  */
!       if (DECL_ARTIFICIAL (decl)
! 	  || lookup_attribute ("artificial", DECL_ATTRIBUTES (decl)))
  	add_AT_flag (subr_die, DW_AT_artificial, 1);
  


The fact that it doesn't stay put is something you should fix.
