Er, that's not correct.
I pointed out that Insight had *hacked* around a problem with locked
files on WindowsSOMETHING by closing the BFD using the *INTERNAL*
function bfd_cache_close().
Neither GDB, sim/common or Insight should be calling functions that are
internal to BFD. If you think the function is useful then please get
BFD to publish its interface:
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
/home/scratch/MI/src/sim/d10v/../common/sim-load.c: In function
`sim_load_file':
/home/scratch/MI/src/sim/d10v/../common/sim-load.c:169: warning:
implicit declaration of function `bfd_cache_close'
*** Error code 1
