Inspired by commit elfutils-0.170-68-gafffdff29228db03e2131af577f58a22aec6c1fe,
I played with your first patchset a bit last weekend, you can find the
result in ldv/stacktrace branch.

Everything looks fine except on armv7 which seems to be universally broken
(neither libdw nor libunwind works in all distributions I tested).
For example, libdw-based unwinder fails strace-k.test with the following
diagnostics in rawhide scratch build:
getpid()                                = 31248
 > /usr/lib/libc-2.27.9000.so(__getpid+0xc) [0x9f66c]
 > No DWARF information found

Surprisingly, aarch64 also fails in rawhide scratch build, but this might
be a rawhide specific issue as in other distributions strace-k.test passes
on aarch64.

For the reference, the rawhide scratch build is
