I think a fix is actually very easy. All that has to be done is to tweak
the init.c scriptery such that *_tdep initialisers are run last. And
actually I think it is worth the while regardless of this particular issue
as this way all the target-dependent bits can rely on generic stuff to
have been initialised.
Of course tweaking the scriptery can be horribly boring, but there you
go. I'll see if I can give it a shot -- unless anyone beats me to it.
