Re: [RFC] introduction of a new language hook for DWARF2 names
This is not very convenient for Ada, where the dwarf2 name has to
be different from the printable_name. Also, I imagine other
languages would benefit from the possibility of distinguishing
dwarf2 names from printable names.
Therefore, I'd like to suggest introducing a new language hook
LTO wants to rid the system of these sorts of hooks? :-)
Ah, sorry, I didn't know that. I skimmed through http://gcc.gnu.org/
projects/lto/lto.pdf, but couldn't find any indication of this... On
the other hand, for Ada at least, using this sort of hook will
greatly help implement the requirements described in section 2.2.1 of
that document.
In any case, I'm completely open to alternate suggestions!
