1032 This function is run after symbol reading, or from a cleanup.

1034 has been blown away, but the other GDB data structures that may
1035 reference it have not yet been cleared or re-directed. (The old

1039 This function can be queued N times as a cleanup, or called
1040 directly; it will do all the work the first time, and then will be a
1041 no-op until the next time it is queued. This works by bumping a
1042 counter at queueing time. Much later when the cleanup is run, or at
1043 the end of symbol processing (in case the cleanup is discarded), if
1044 the queued count is greater than the "done-count", we do the work
1045 and set the done-count to the queued count. If the queued count is
1046 less than or equal to the done-count, we just ignore the call. This
1047 is needed because reading a single .o file will often replace many
1048 symtabs (one per .h file, for example), and we don't want to reset
1049 the breakpoints N times in the user's face.
1051 The reason we both queue a cleanup, and call it directly after symbol
1052 reading, is because the cleanup protects us in case of errors, but is
1053 discarded if symbol reading is successful. */
