I just had a thought about the test, and testing in general of DWARF5 and
split DWARF.  Right now, it's not really testing DWARF5 range lists, as the
name implies.  It's more a general program that may happen to fail given the
right compiler and compiler version.

[In fact, could you mention (here and in the commit message) how to run your
test case so that it fails, when the rest of your patch is not applied?  The
full "make check" command line, plus the compiler version used to compiler
the test case.

Ideally, we would have:

- one test such for the very specific case you are fixing (DW_AT_ranges inside
  a dwo with DWARF5).  We would use the DWARF assembler in lib/dwarf.exp to
  generate exactly what we want to test.  It would probably need to be improved
  a bit to learn about rnglists though.
- a new board file that tests with "-gsplit-dwarf -gdwarf5".  A bit like
  fission.exp, but for DWARF5.  I think a plain "-gdwarf5" board file would
  be useful too.
