We used embedded stabs for SOM (the native format for 32bit PA). SOM is a
variant of COFF and could easily support dwarf I would think since
it had support for fairly arbitrary sections. Hell, it was already supporting
embedded stabs as well as HP's proprietary debugging format.
But I'd consider 32bit SOM on hpux11 dead too :-)
I don't disagree but 32bit SOM still builds on hpux11:

Suspect the change will cause a lot of warnings.
It might, but with stabs going away something needs to be done with
these legacy systems. Either they need to move into the modern world,
deal with the diagnostic or get dropped.
There is some support for hpux10/11 in qemu but it takes a lot of work to
provide the build infrastructure needed for gcc.
I would think so.
DWARF isn't supported because we lack named sections. That could be worked
around
but probably the gdb versions that work on 32-bit hpux11 wouldn't support DWARF.
I'd be a bit surprised if that were true. dwarf support has been around
a long long time in GDB. Hell, it was around when I did the original
64bit PA work back in the 90s.
