  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The "Local Variables:" section in a CEEDUMP for compile units
    compiled with the NOTEST(DWARF) compiler option should be
    produced regardless of the RENT compiler option setting.
    
    While this works correctly in the RENT case, the section is
    missing for NORENT compile units.
    

Local fix

  • Use RENT if possible
