Description Mark Wielaard 2007-11-05 20:47:23 UTC 
TestLinuxCore.java (and duplicated now in TestTaskObserverCode.java) is some
code to symbly do a getFunctionEntryAddress(). Since this is generally useful
code it makes sense to add it and the helper class/methods to SymbolFactory.
See http://sourceware.org/ml/frysk/2007-q4/msg00030.html

Step 2 would be to have to symbol lookup functionality correct in
elfutils/libdwfl using the right elf dl symbol search path lookup.
