That way, they can be shared by all objfiles referring to a given BFD. This saves memory and perhaps a bit of time, in the multi-inferior case. This is based on my similar patch series to make minimal symbols independent of the program space: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-10/msg00521.html This is part of the obj file splitting project: https://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/ObjfileSplitting I built and regtested the series on x86-64 Fedora 18.
