Tested with a minidump containing a version 3 structure to validate the string conversion routines. Interestingly enough the time_zone names does not appear to be abbreviation as the documentation was suggesting but full names, e.g. Eastern Standard Time:
MDRawMiscInfo
size_of_info = 232
flags1 = 0xf7
process_id = 0x54c4
process_create_time = 0x51a9323c
process_user_time = 0x1
process_kernel_time = 0x0
processor_max_mhz = 3100
processor_current_mhz = 1891
processor_mhz_limit = 3100
processor_max_idle_state = 0x1
processor_current_idle_state = 0x1
The new fileds follow:
process_integrity_level = 0x1000
process_execute_flags = 0x4d
protected_process = 0
time_zone_id = 2
time_zone.bias = 300
time_zone.standard_name = Eastern Standard Time
time_zone.daylight_name = Eastern Daylight Time

doesn't see the correct thread stack memory. Instead, it loads garbage
(from offset 0 of the minidump file - well that's not garbage, but it is
not the stack memory region either) and attempts to walk it. A typical
symptom of this issue is when you get a single stack frame after
processing - the context frame - for which you don't need stack memory.
This issue is caused by an invalid RVA in the memory descriptor stored
inside the MINIDUMP_THREAD structure for the thread. Luckily, the
invalid RVA is 0, and the start_of_memory_region appears to be correct,
so this issue can be easily detected and the correct memory region can be
loaded using an RVA specified in the MinidumpMemoryList.
I couldn't find a reasonable description on MSDN regarding
MINIDUMP_MEMORY_DESCRIPTOR.MINIDUMP_LOCATION_DESCRIPTOR having RVA of 0
except maybe for full dumps where the 64-bit version of the structure
(MINIDUMP_MEMORY_DESCRIPTOR64) is used and it has no RVA at all. It has
a 64-bit DataSize which if interpreted as the 32-bit structure will very
likely result in 0 for the RVA:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms680384(v=vs.85).aspx
Anyways, the dump that I looked at was not a full dump so 0 for RVA is a
bit puzzling (at least easily detectable):

We've gotten mixed advice from the lawyery types about whether this
matters. But it's easy enough to do.

In order to be able to treat any MemoryRegion as const, the accessor
functions need to be declared this-const, which means annotations on
all the subclasses, etc. etc.
Since MinidumpMemoryRegion fills its memory_ member on demand, that
member needs to be marked 'mutable', but this is exactly the sort of
situation the 'mutable' keyword was intended for, so that seems all
right.
