Nothing important.  My only point was that anything which read the type
of this minimal symbol was already off the end of the array, because
mst_unknown does not act as a terminator; everything should either use
minimal_symbol_count (most things do), or SYMBOL_LINKAGE_NAME (msym) ==
NULL.  So there is no need for the type to be mst_unknown (or anything
else).
