Dwarf2 maybe broken in the last two weeks on mainline on MinGW

Something in the last week or two has changed that makes me unable to
debug cc1.  When loading the cc1 executable in gdb, I get this error:

Dwarf Error: bad offset (0x122eed7) in compilation unit header (offset
0x6e9ece + 6) [in module
/aaronwl/cs/env/mingw-head-head-head-20040920/libexec/gcc/i686-pc-mingw32/4.0.0/cc1.exe]

Does anyone have any idea what might have caused this?  I suppose its
possible that there was a latent problem with dwarf2 generation and some
unrelated change broke it.

I'm not entirely sure how to debug this sort of thing, or even how I'd
file a PR for it.  Anyone have any hints?
