IDK about DWARF v4; that seems to work for me.  I was previously observing
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1922698
with DWARF v5.  I just re-pulled the latest pahole, rebuilt, and no
longer see that warning.

I now observe a different set.  I plan on attending "BPF office hours
tomorrow morning," but if anyone wants a sneak peak of the errors and
how to reproduce:

(FWIW: some other folks are hitting issues now with kernel's lack of
DWARF v5 support: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1922707)
