  To: gdb-patches

The changes below are motivated by the desire to have correct section
addresses stored in the obj_section structs (for shared objects) found
via the object_files list.

More information regarding this issue may be found at

    http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ml/gdb/2000-q1/msg00681.html .

There was also a patch appended to the above message.  I hereby
withdraw that patch from consideration.

Note that MAX_SECTIONS has been increased to 30 (from 12).  The reason
for this is that 12 was much too small.  So how did I arrive at 30?  I
counted the number of special sections documented in my (now rather
old) System V ABI book and counted 24.  I added on six more for good
measure (to accomodate architecture specific sections.)

	* solib.c (symbol_add_stub): Make symbol_file_add() aware of
	all section addresses, not just .text.
	* symtab.h (MAX_SECTIONS): Increase to 30.
