But then that makes for a sort of a half baked implementation.
I just tried "disassemble main" against gdbserver, and I got more than
DIS_BUF_SIZE... Enough for 3 buffer fetches actually. I think it'll
be quite common to overflow DIS_BUF_SIZE, and it's worth it to re-fill
the buffer properly.

Yes, but while it's still passable to assume a few instructions
off of the requested range are still text/code, it's not so
safe if we try to read much beyond that.
I still think that it's worth it from a correctness perspective to
not make GDB worse than what it is today. Arguably that libopcodes
behavior could be changed, (or fixed, depending on perspective),
though it may be a bunch of work.

This shows that extending the struct is a better approach than a
void * field that is part of the structure. With the "subclass"
approach, we can have multiple layers each stacking their own
data, and they'll all be happy. With a single void* field, we'd
need to add coupling between the layers to sort that out.
I took a stab at it. I ended up touching other things too, and
reworking some of the comments. The patch below is the result.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver,
and also built with --enable-targets=all.
Manually debugging against gdbserver, enabling "set debug
remote", and trying out "disassemble" commands, I can see
the optimization triggering as expected.
