Multiprogram teaser

[Stan Shebs <stan at codesourcery dot com>]

Here's a little teaser showing the results of me flogging GDB's source 
code. In addition to the fun aspect of listing the main()s of two 
different programs, it points up the the potential confusion of having 
several programs in a session. What I've got so far in my prototype is 
the ability to collect multiple execs from the command line, the 
creation of "exec" objects from which you can select one as "current", 
and some symbol table hacking to restrict lookups to the current executable.
