    Re: objdump read_section_stabs
    
    Commit f9c36cc99518 changed (and renamed) read_section_stabs with one
    difference in overall behaviour.  Previously read_section_stabs would
    return a NULL for an empty section, which was then treated the same as
    a missing section.  Now an empty section is recognized and dumped.
    This leads to NULL stabp and stabs_end in print_section_stabs.  Since
    stabs_end - STABSIZE is then a pointer to a very large address, the
    test "stabp < stabs_end - STABSIZE" succeeds.
    
            * objdump.c (print_section_stabs): Correct STABSIZE comparison.
