Where would be the right place to hook in some language/compiler-
dependent actions to be executed whenever a new symbol file is
loaded for any reason, e.g., file command, attach command, or
specified on the gdb command line?

Probably the new_objfile observer, but it depends what you need to do
with it.

I just need to change the default handling of a signal, for user convenience.
The preferred way to set it up depends on the compiler used. I detect that
by the absence/presence of certain symbols that come from the runtime system.
