For DW_TAG_common_block:
+ /* SYMBOL_VALUE_ADDRESS never gets used as all its fields are static.
*/
There is only important the user-visible DW_AT_name of DW_TAG_common_block.
Then there are child DIEs DW_TAG_variable. Good point there should be
DW_AT_*linkage_name present the same way as normal variables should have it.
