I'm not aware of any DWARF standard assertion about the persistence of the semantics of vendor opcodes across time or versions. If so, there is nothing stopping a vendor from reusing any extension code toward different ends in DWARF6. That would not even take flag-day coordination with other vendors. - FChE -- Dwarf-discuss mailing list Dwarf-discuss@lists.dwarfstd.org https://lists.dwarfstd.org/mailman/listinfo/dwarf-discuss
