I agree.

Also see free_objfile, which calls objfile_free_data before closing the
BFD.

This, btw, is the main reason that I like Jan's old patch to unify
re-reading with freeing -- it automatically means consistency.

Perhaps Pedro's problems with that patch could be alleviated by having
"destroy in place" and "initialize in place" functions that both
free_objfile and reread_symbols could use.
