* New upstream release: 20111214.
* dwarfdump[2]: Added support for DW_OP_GNU operators. Enhanced the
  extended-extensions table so known GNU tag-attr dependencies get no
  warning. Added support for DWARF3/4 line table values. libdwarf: Added
  support for DW_OP_GNU operators. Added dwarf_lineoff_b() function making
  dwarf_lineoff() obsolete (but still present). Added
  dwarf_add_lineentry_b() as part of preparation for creating DWARF3/4 line
  output (including isa and discriminator fields). Added
  dwarf_prologue_end_etc() function to access line entry new fields. The
  consumer documentation is now at version 2.02 and producer doc at version
  1.32 . dwarfgen: Added example code generating line tables.
* Now libdwarf and dwarfdump/dwarfdump2 support reading and printing the
  DWARF4 .debug_types section.
* dwarfdump2: Major change! Now works just like dwarfdump -- with the same
  options and capabilities as dwarfdump but by taking advantage of C++
  features it is simpler to read and a bit faster than C dwarfdump.
  dwarfdump: Fixed some (minor) problems in detecting compilation units and
  showing errors. libdwarf: Now a bit more robust in detecting errors in
  object files
* Some minor changes. libdwarf: added -fPIC to enable-shared builds, and
  implemented the ability to declare (in dwarfdump.conf) that address-size
  is 4 or 8. dwarfdump: Fixed tsearch related call with a memory leak, added
  a dwarfdump.conf example showing new includeabi: and address_size: command
  lines, configure now sets HAVE_STDAFX_H if that header (non-Linux) exists,
  verify checking is on before doing a duplicate-fde check. dwarfdump2:
  verify checking is on before doing a duplicate-fde check.
