Hi!

E.g. on
struct A { char pad[136]; int i; } a;
the following patch saves one byte in .debug_info, by using DW_FORM_data1
instead of DW_FORM_sdata for DW_AT_data_member_location.

I've briefly looked at gdb (and valgrind) and I think it should handle
this just fine:
xxx = dwarf2_get_attr_constant_value (attr, 0);
and
  if (attr->form == DW_FORM_sdata)
    return DW_SND (attr);
  else if (attr->form == DW_FORM_udata
           || attr->form == DW_FORM_data1
           || attr->form == DW_FORM_data2
           || attr->form == DW_FORM_data4
           || attr->form == DW_FORM_data8)
    return DW_UNSND (attr);

Ok for trunk?

	* dwarf2out.c (add_data_member_location_attribute): Use
	add_AT_unsigned instead of add_AT_int if offset is non-negative.
