+       * buildsym.c: Add comments describing how the buildsym machinery
+       is used by the various file formats.
+       (really_free_pendings): Enhance function comment.
+       See pending_macros to NULL.  Simplify resetting pending_addrmap.
+       Call free_buildsym_compunit.
+       (free_buildsym_compunit): Set current_subfile to NULL.
+       (prepare_for_building): New function.
+       (start_symtab): Call it.  Remove call to set_last_source_file.
+       (restart_symtab): New arg "cust".  All callers updated.
+       Simplify, call prepare_for_building.  Re-initialize buildsym_compunit.
+       (reset_symtab_globals): Enhance function comment.
+       Set local_symbols, file_symbols, global_symbols to NULL.
+       Set pending_macros to NULL.  Simplify resetting pending_addrmap.
+       Call free_buildysym_compunit.
+       (end_symtab_without_blockvector): Delete.  All callers updated.
+       (end_symtab_with_blockvector): Remove redundant call to
+       free_buildsym_compunit.
+       (augment_type_symtab): Remove arg "cust".  All callers updated.
+       (buildsym_init): Remove resetting of free_pendings, file_symbols,
+       global_symbols, pending_blocks, pending_macros.  Instead make
+       handling consistent with pending_addrmap: Assert value was reset
+       at end of previous symtab building.  Initialize context_stack here.
