LOCAL FUNCTION
elf_symtab_read -- read the symbol table of an ELF file
SYNOPSIS
void elf_symtab_read (bfd *abfd, CORE_ADDR addr,
struct objfile *objfile)
DESCRIPTION
Given an open bfd, a base address to relocate symbols to, and a
flag that specifies whether or not this bfd is for an executable
or not (may be shared library for example), add all the global
function and data symbols to the minimal symbol table.
In stabs-in-ELF, as implemented by Sun, there are some local symbols
defined in the ELF symbol table, which can be used to locate
the beginnings of sections from each ".o" file that was linked to
form the executable objfile. We gather any such info and record it
in data structures hung off the objfile's private data.

symbols. FIXME.
MAINLINE is true if we are reading the main symbol
table (as opposed to a shared lib or dynamically loaded file).
This function only does the minimum work necessary for letting the
user "name" things symbolically; it does not read the entire symtab.
Instead, it reads the external and static symbols and puts them in partial
symbol tables. When more extensive information is requested of a
file, the corresponding partial symbol table is mutated into a full
fledged symbol table by going back and reading the symbols
for real.
We look for sections with specific names, to tell us what debug
format to look for: FIXME!!!
dwarf_build_psymtabs() builds psymtabs for DWARF symbols;
elfstab_build_psymtabs() handles STABS symbols;
mdebug_build_psymtabs() handles ECOFF debugging information.
Note that ELF files have a "minimal" symbol table, which looks a lot
like a COFF symbol table, but has only the minimal information necessary
for linking. We process this also, and use the information to
build gdb's minimal symbol table. This gives us some minimal debugging
capability even for files compiled without -g. */
