[rfc] [00/17] Get rid of current_gdbarch (4th)

[Markus Deuling]

Hi,

this is the 4th patch set for getting rid of current_gdbarch. 

Patch 04/17 is a patch from Ulrich which adds "struct gdbarch" to "struct objfile" to enable accessing 
an objfiles's architecture. Some of the following patches depend on this patch.
@Uli: I hope it's ok that I borrowed your patch ? ;-)

I do have no idea how to test the changes to win32-nat and go32-nat. Although the changes are still
mostly mechanical it would somewhen be a good idea to test it, I guess.

Tested by running testuite on x86 and gdb_mbuild. 

Is this ok? Thanks a lot for your effort

I think it would be better to separate those parts out.  I'd like to see some
more discussion on the concept of per-objfile gdbarch.  It would help to see
clearly in which places we actually need this; this is important for those
cases where the per-objfile gdbarch doesn't have the full information that
the actual target-refined gdbarch has.

Bye,
Ulrich
