This is a very nice patch.  Pushed almost as is.  While reviewing I
added some ChangeLog entries.  I added the NEWS entry.  In libdw.map I
moved dwfl_report_offline_memory under ELFUTILS_0.188.  In the
tests/Makefile.am I added libeu to dwfl_report_offline_memory_LDADD
because the test uses error.

Thanks,

Mark
