Sorry I thought I had explained. I don't like just the plain hex number since that doesn't signal something is wrong. Using the lower case unknown_ prefix matches the lo_user+ prefix which also signals something is wrong. The user should know this is not an ordinary case, either the DWARF they are inspecting is bogus or their elfutils version hasn't been updated for their toolchain. In the normal case there should be no lo_user+/unknown_ values in any output. I had considered using UNKNOWN in all caps but thought it was too much, or just use quotes around the hex value, but that seemed to not really show that something was wrong. Would any of those alterations, or a variation on them, make you happy?
