Description

Right now, we have problems with decompilation of object files. Here are a few binaries, that we could use to identify problems, and use them in regression tests once the problems are fixed: [bins.zip](https://github.com/avast-tl/retdec/files/1703973/bins.zip).

Research direction

Download bins.zip from the issue and use its object-file binaries to reproduce the decompilation problems. Compare the observed failures and determine which decompilation paths are affected; the work is complete when the identified cases are fixed and the supplied binaries are covered by regression tests.
