Deleted `thunk' structure, merged into tdata, duplicate data eliminated.
Rearranged functions, grouping by function.
Broke up many functions in elfcode.h, re-ordered many parts of file writing
to handle unpredictable state of section relocation table as provided by
various applications.
Still needs cleanup: Merge functions back together, split out data structure
with only data that is used only when writing out object file.
* elf.c (bfd_elf_generic_reloc): New function, taken from coff-mips.c.
* elf32-sparc.c (elf_sparc_howto_table): Use it, to work around
bfd_perform_relocation lossage.
bfd_make_debug_symbol; they were already in the target structure.
* Adjusted all uses of JUMP_TABLE.
* coffgen.c, libcoff-in.h (coff_bfd_make_debug_symbol): Renamed
from coff_make_debug_symbol.
* libcoff.h: Updated accordingly.
on the possible size of any object in a bfd.
* elf.c (bfd_elf_find_section, elf_get_str_section,
elf_get_symtab_upper_bound): Rewrite to avoid NULL pointer
dereferences.
* elf.c (elf_big_vec, elf_little_vec): Document last three
members initialized to NULL.
coffcode.h, elf.c, ieee.c, libaout.h, libbfd.c, oasys.c,
sco-core.c: Lint: Second argument of bfd_seek is always file_ptr.
Third argument is SEEK_SET or SEEK_CUR. Result is always 0 or -1.

Now a bfd knows whether underscores are normally prepended
to symbols in its file format. Helps with error messages.
* aout-adobe.c, aout-target.h, bout.c, coff-a29k.c, coff-h8300.c,
coff-z8k.c: targets set so they have leading underscore
* coff-i386.c, coff-i960.c, coff-m68k.c, coff-mips.c, coff-m88k.c,
coff-rs6000.c, coff-we32k.c, elf.c, ieee.c, srec.c: targets set
without leading underscore flag
* targets.c: add symbol leading char to xvec description
* bfd-in.h (bfd_get_symbol_leading_char): new macro.
* elf.c (bfd_section_from_shdr, elf_section_from_bfd_section,
section_from_elf_index): Add SHT_BEPROGBITS case for i860 in
big endian mode.
* elf.c (bfd_section_from_shdr): Test for the possibility that
section_from_elf_index returns NULL and don't dereference it.
its prototype will be included in libbfd.h. Change result type
to struct * (rather than equivalent typedef) so it can be used in
the prototype, where they typedef won't be known.
* libbfd.h: Updated version.
Correct misconception that there can be only one symbol table.
Only call elf_slurp_symbol_table on the full symbol table, not
the dynamic one which is only a subset of the full one.
(The bfd library was slurping in the first ELF symbol table it
found and then ignoring any others. For dynamically linked
executables, this happened to be the dynamic symbol table, which
is a subset of the full symbol table and only contains the
symbols that need to be used in dynamic linking.)
elf_core_tdata_struct into a single common struct. Core files
wouldn't have worked at all without this.
(bfd_elf_find_section): New function for GDB's undercover use
to find string sections that BFD hides from it.
(elf_get_str_section): Avoid multiple alloc&reads for same data; lint.
(elf_object_p, elf_core_file_p): Allocate internal file header
storage dynamically.
* bfd.c (union {...} tdata): Remove elf_core_tdata_struct.
* demo64.c: Prevent "empty translation unit" warnings from idiots.
if they make sense as independent sections; symbols and relocs are
turned into BFD symbols and relocs; objects are now created.
objdump and copy mostly work on .o files.
this check-in will be followed by gdb testing.
the code has *not* yet been split up the way coff is to
support multiple architectures and bit widths.
no ChangeLog entries yet; too big... nearly everything changed.
elf.c: Remove extraneous paren from core_prpsinfo and core_prpstatus
macros, rename core_prpstatus to core_prstatus. Replace references to
old section "size" member with new "_raw_size" member. Implement
elf_make_empty_symbol, which is now used.
coff-h8300.c, coff-i386.c, coff-i960.c, coff-m68k.c, coff-m88k.c,
coff-mips.c, coff-rs6000.c, cpu-h300.c, elf.c, i386aout.c,
newos3.c, stab-syms.c, syms.c: All these files have had their
#includes altered to point to the new places.
