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 $bin 2>/dev/null`;
foreach (@dumpout)
{
@flds = split;
next if (@flds < 7);
next if ($flds[1] ne 'LSYM' || $flds[6] !~ /([^:]+):[tT]/);
$syms{$1} =1;
}
}

cheers
