I don't want to rush on any API/ABI additions. Also note I will be out and incommunicado from this Friday through September 5th. So if you want a release soon (which I think is a fine thing), we should just tie up the pure fixes and backend additions this week and let more additions wait for the next release.

This is just a bug fix and I don't think it needs to be described this way. > Support for DWZ multifile forms DW_FORM_GNU_ref_alt/strp_alt. This is a problematic addition that opens new security issues in the tools. Since DWZ is not yet in wide use, if we want to make a release soon perhaps we should disable some of this support. It's also an extreme API layering violation. Doing this in a responsible way needs much more thought, so I think the only right thing to do for an imminent release is to disable the libdw support entirely.
