While you're in there merging symbol strings, perhaps you can explain
this code from stabsread.c (there might be similar code for other
readers; I haven't looked): In define_symbol, handling of 'T' case:
if (TYPE_TAG_NAME (SYMBOL_TYPE (sym)) == 0)
TYPE_TAG_NAME (SYMBOL_TYPE (sym))
= obconcat (&objfile->type_obstack, "", "", SYMBOL_NAME (sym));
Why can't just SYMBOL_NAME (sym) be used for the TYPE_TAG_NAME value?
