The llvm family of code is becoming more complete in terms of a full GNU replacement. That isn't the land of python, but you're going to have to go outside of that anyway for actual compiler/toolchain work. (LLVM has a builtin DWARF parser) I'm not a fan of llvm, but the codebase does have a "not bad" design in terms of ease of portability. Assuming your arch isn't VLIW I wouldn't expect too much hell. If gcc isn't a forced requirement out of the gate maybe give it a go. /* Side note: there's 2 "libdwarfs" floating around.. the one from SGI and the BSD implementation, if licensing makes any difference.. I've worked with the later https://github.com/pathscale/libdwarf-bsd */
