Well, the procedure for generating it is quite public.

The relevant piece of perl is this - feel free to suggest improvements:

       if (@err == 1) # Linux       {           @dumpout = `objdump -W $bin 2>/dev/null | egrep -A3 
'(DW_TAG_typedef|DW_TAG_structure_type|DW_TAG_union_type)' 2>/dev/null`;           foreach (@dumpout)           {
       @flds = split;               next if ($flds[0]  ne 'DW_AT_name' || $flds[-1] =~ 
 
/^DW_FORM_str/);               $syms{$flds[-1]} =1;           }       }       else       {           @dumpout =
`objdump--stabs $bin 2>/dev/null`;           foreach (@dumpout)           {               @flds = split;
nextif (@flds < 7);               next if ($flds[1]  ne 'LSYM' || $flds[6] !~ /([^:]+):[tT]/);               $syms{$1}
=1;          }                 }      
 


cheers
