No, I don't think so. The representation has "always" (i.e., for as long as I can remember) been that the global namespace was represented as NULL_TREE, while other namespaces are represented by NAMESPACE_DECL. (One could argue that's a silly non-uniformity, but that's how it's always been.) > If so, I guess we'll have to strip that out in dwarf2out.

Which type is getting set up like that? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28460
