Subject: auto-solib-add for "attach" as well as "run"

I have an enhancement request where a gdb user wants the
"auto-solib-add" flag to work with the "attach" command as well
as the "run" command.

Superficially, this looks like an entirely reasonable thing to do.
"run" and "attach" are different in how they handle processes,
but ought to work the same for the whole symbol-handling side of
the debugger.

Can anyone point out any gotchas or drawbacks if I just go ahead
and make "attach" honor the "auto-solib-add" flag?

Like this?

#include <iostream>

int tteesstt11 (int)
{
  cerr << "\n";
  return 4;
}

int main ()
{
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
  cout << "1\n";
}


I set my break on the first cout in main. When I print tteesstt11(1) I still
get the debugger seg violation.

And i don't
Breakpoint 1, main () at a.c:11
11        cout << "1\n";
Current language:  auto; currently c++
(gdb) p tt
tt               tteesstt11(int)  ttyname
(gdb) p tteesstt11(1)
------ Arg is int [7], parm is int [7]
Overloaded function instance tteesstt11(int) # of parms 1
...Badness @ 0 : 0
...Badness @ 1 : 0
Overload resolution champion is 0, ambiguous? 0

$1 = 4
(gdb)                


I can almost guarantee this is not a gdb bug.
Compiled with both dwarf2 debug info, and stabs debug info, it works fine
on BeOS and linux.
