/*  SECTION

        ELF backends

        BFD support for ELF formats is being worked on.
        Currently, the best supported back ends are for sparc and i386
        (running svr4 or Solaris 2).

        Documentation of the internals of the support code still needs
        to be written.  The code is changing quickly enough that we
        haven't bothered yet.  */

INTERNAL_FUNCTION

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
        Helper functions for GDB to locate the string tables.
        Since BFD hides string tables from callers, GDB needs to use an
        internal hook to find them.  Sun's .stabstr, in particular,
        isn't even pointed to by the .stab section, so ordinary
        mechanisms wouldn't work to find it, even if we had some.

   generate the names segment<NUM>a and segment<NUM>b.

   Note that some program segments may have a file size that is different than
   (less than) the memory size.  All this means is that at execution the
   system must allocate the amount of memory specified by the memory size,
   but only initialize it with the first "file size" bytes read from the
   file.  This would occur for example, with program segments consisting
   of combined data+bss.

   To handle the above situation, this routine generates TWO bfd sections
   for the single program segment.  The first has the length specified by
   the file size of the segment, and the second has the length specified
   by the difference between the two sizes.  In effect, the segment is split
   into it's initialized and uninitialized parts.

            In this case those sections which have not been moved can be
            placed in the current segment which will have to have its size,
            and possibly its LMA changed, and a new segment or segments will
            have to be created to contain the other sections.

         4. The sections have been moved, but not by the same amount.
            In this case we can change the segment's LMA to match the LMA
            of the first section and we will have to create a new segment
            or segments to contain the other sections.

         In order to save time, we allocate an array to hold the section
