"Next" as in the entry GDB locates in the next time it calls
elf_locate_base(...), this time solib_create_inferior_hook(...) is in
the code path after post_create_inferior(...):

... whereas the first time it was called:

#0  elf_locate_base () at /home/luis/src/gdb/gdb-head/HEAD3/gdb/solib-svr4.c:494
#1  0x00000000100af30c in locate_base () at /home/luis/src/gdb/gdb-head/HEAD3/gdb/solib-svr4.c:570
