Bug Description

Created attachment 2075 [details]
appchk results with debug (gzipped)

As was indicated in the ML, appchk produces the following warning when running
against binary compiled with lsbcc in a modern system:

WARNING: there was a problem parsing the eh_frame section of
libjpeg.so. This is not a compliance issue but to aid further evolution
of the LSB, please rerun the program with the environment
variable ELFCHK_DEBUG set to 17 and email the output to ...

This issue seem to be caused by DWARF updates/support and should be taken care
of when updating DWARF.

Output with ELFCHK_DEBUG enabled is attached.
