Description
There are, within our source trees, files which compile to nothing (who can imagine why).
The CTF tools need to handle the possibility that a source file may legitimately have no type data because it has no code, as the compiler may choose to emit either an empty CU, or no CU at all in this case.

The fix I have for this employs a simple heuristic "any file which contains executable text must also contain actual DWARF type data". The presumption being that writing actual code such that no DWARF is emitted is impossible.
