I think this discussion has gotten totally sidetracked. When I said
I was in favor of strings, I didn't mean messages that would ever be
displayed! It's the difference between DW_TAG_compile_unit and
"compile-unit".
It is no more work for the producer or for the consumer, it's clearer,
and conflicts are much less likely. The only downside is that it's
larger. But with string duplicate elimination - your linker can
do that, I hope - it's only larger by a trivial amount.
