Why wouldn't you have DIEs for the imported namelist items? I'd think that once the compiler has processed the USE statement and imported the namelist into the current compilation unit, it would generate DIEs for all the imported items, and then be able to construct a fully-populated DW_TAG_namelist DIE. (At least it would have DIEs for all the imported items that are actually used in that module, which should be sufficient for debugging.) -cary
