[Bug binutils/11103] New: Dwarf1 reading will go wrong or crash on AT_producer

[dporges at chipwrights dot com]

In reading output from an obscure compiler that produces dwarf1, it appears that
the reader will get confused by an AT_producer attribute, or indeed by any
FORM_STRING aside from AT_name in the TAG_compile_unit. The offending source is:

   case FORM_STRING:
      if (attr == AT_name)
        aDieInfo->name = (char *)xptr;
      xptr += strlen (aDieInfo->name) + 1;

Surely that last line should be 

      xptr += strlen (xptr) + 1;

-- since if the attr isn't AT_name it isn't in aDieInfo->name.
