Please provide cvdump.pdb as well. #20

You provide the executable, which is nice, but as long as things are in a state where we cannot build the thing ourselves, providing the PDB for the executable that you do include would at least let us step through and get a better feel for how it works.

Providing both debug and release builds of the tool might be useful as well.

Right now I am looking at an issue where cvdump says the TYPES stream is corrupt. Why? Hard to say - I am having to step through in assembly language to try and deduce why this might be the case, and as you might expect this is a tedious process.

Yes please, being able to step through cvdump source code in the debugger would be very useful :)
