--- Comment #3 from dodji at redhat dot com ---
So this is due to some function parameter names which contain ASCII *control*
characters.  I am not sure why this would happen.  Maybe this is because the
source code file was encoded in something that is not proper ASCII? 
Unfortunately, I am not aware of any way to detect the encoding of the source
file, from the DWARF information; so I am assuming it should be ASCII.

The fix involves detecting characters that are not simple ASCII identifier
characters in parameter names.  If there is any, the parameter name is dropped
on the floor.

The fix has landed into the master branch at
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=libabigail.git;a=commit;h=c3869ecc7bbd6f8370ca29446afdcc1d2631e33d.
