Most probably because dwarf2out.c has never been written with the current state
of LTO in mind, it assumes the FE or the middle-end gives it sane and complete
trees of everything needed.
With early debug info, if done right for LTO, supposedly the problems goes away
again, so either we add some hack for this and accept there are hundreds of
other ways how to get it crashed with -flto -g (perhaps regression on some
particular testcase, but generally all gcc versions with -flto -g contained
lots of various ICEs), or just add this to other cases which show -flto -g is
unsupportable until early debug info is added to GCC 6.
