Done.

Ah, it's possible that
quick_symbol_functions::map_symtabs_matching_filename existed before,
and then it was merged into the do-it-all search method.

Fixed as you suggested.

Fixed.

No worries, it was easy to fix.  I also don't look ahead much when
reviewing patches, otherwise it's a lot of tokens to hold in the small
