Both seem unrelated to what you've done here, I'm investigating it now.
The fullcircle one, that crashes at the 'codiff' utility is related to
the patch that makes dwarf_cu to allocate space for the hash tables, as
you introduced a destructor for the dwarf_cu hashtables and the dwarf_cu
that was assigned to cu->priv was a local variable, which wasn't much of
a problem because we were not freeing it, as it went away at each loop
iteration, the following patch to that first patch in the series seems
to cure it, I'm folding it into your patch + a commiter note.
