   I'd love to have this committed.  Isn't Mark already covered?

Apparently my GDB assignment doesn't cover BFD.  I'll try to get the
paperwork done ASAP.

By the way, this patch isn't that urgent.  It's necessary to support
cross-debugging of FreeBSD/i386 core files.  But that won't work
before I've added the necessary support to GDB.  Since I'm in the
middle of some pretty invasive changes in the i386 target, that'll
have to wait a bit longer.
