  This means, if I understand this correctly that
if I compile a 32 bit readelf executable
bfd_vma will be a 64-bit integer inside readelf.c,
but a 32-bit integer in dwarf.c.

  dwarf.c still mainly uses bfd_vma
and has dwarf_vma only for one function
get_encoded_value...

  Should read_leb128 (and maybe other functions within
dwarf.c) also be changed to use
dwarf_vma rather than bfd_vma in that case?

Pierre
