[patch] Fix a reread_symbols regression by mmap [Re: [patch] Use mmap instead of obstack_alloc for dwarf debug sections.]
Hi Paul,
while sure your patch is great it has a regression. Assuming a regression
reproducer needs to link GDB with -lmcheck (but did verify it).
(I do not try to advocate reread_symbols but its code is there now.)
Thanks,
Jan

Fix a regression by the mmap patch from 2009-06-16.
* symfile.c (reread_symbols): Move sym_finish and clear_objfile_data
calls before deleting the OBJFILE obstack. Extend the comment.
