Jan, Doug, Eli, how do you feel about "possibly inconsistent"?
The option text would become:
"Do not reject possibly inconsistent .gdb_index sections."
and the docs would be s/incomplete/possibly inconsistent/
Warnings would be:
versions < 4: "Skipping obsolete .gdb-index section in %s"
versions 4,5: "Skipping possibly inconsistent .gdb_index section in %s,
pass --use-old-index-sections to use them anyway"
Does that look ok?
Thanks,
Gary
