Sorry, I meant to reply earlier.
I also think that only giving the option of quieting symbol loadi
g from shared libraries libraries isn't desirable. Take the
below example. In this case, I'd like to have to option
of not printing the hundreds of "(no debugging symbols)" found
for executables (those are system executables, and I don't have
symbols for most of those).
(we clearly could do better with other kinds of messages below too)
