How much of a writer do you want?

Just something that writes DIE's?

Or do you need line info, accelerator tables, etc?

I think just DIE's would be sufficient, definitely don't need accelerator table stuff.

I've actually considered looking more at the LLVM dwarf writing components. Do you have any experience with that?
