--- Comment #3 from Mark Johnston <markj@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Paco Pascal from comment #2)
My apologies for not following up sooner!  I think you indeed found the root
cause, thanks.  Thinking about this some more, I suspect that libdwarf shou=
ld
be handling this case itself, rather than forcing it into consumers.

I looked at SGI libdwarf, and it appears to handle this:
dwarf_elf_object_access_load_section() looks for a NULL d_buf in the data
descriptor of the target ELF section, which indicates that the section is
SHT_NOBITS.  I proposed a patch here: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D25626
