The guile-dltools stuff does support this, so it should be possible. Initially I think it makes sense to include it in the .go directly though, and add things incrementally. > Another thing I noticed is that in 2.0 we have location info for code, > but not for (global) variable definitions in general (which prevents > M-. from doing anything useful for non-procedure top-level variables.) > > How would that work with DWARF? It could work! Currently M-. just fails if the thing isn't a procedure. But this info could go in the DIE. What would it be associated with, however? The scoped name or the variable object? Anyway we can make this happen. > Personally I’m still very much on the Guix (dark?) side of things, but > I’d like to get on the 2.1 train sometime in the coming months. Cool.
