[Bug binutils/615] New: readelf gives warnings when dumping .debug_loc generated by gcc 4.0

readelf: Warning: .debug_loc section has more comp units than .debug_info 
section
readelf: Warning: assuming that the pointer size is 4, from the last comp unit
in .debug_info

I don't think readelf should dump .debug_loc section directly. It should
use DW_AT_location in .debug_info to dump .debug_loc. One way to do it is to
get a list of DW_AT_location in .debug_info first.
