Yup, that's what the problem was -- it was executing the BFD_IN_MEMORY
code, and the bim had no allocated memory at all. The following seems to
work for me, but I'm unsure of some of the finer details.
1) Are the bfd_set_error's correct?
2) Is this *really* the right thing to do?

* bfd/libbfd.c: fix 'seek beyond EOF' error when
writing out a structure that is BFD_IN_MEMORY.
