Hi,

this is a short patch for the ld auto-import memory bug.

I have tested it while compiling kde2 with about 20 dll's without any bugs. It
reduces memory using about 150 MB for a lib with many
dependencies like kdelibs/kdeui.

Please note as told in previous mail in this tread, that there are some more
ocurrence of this behaviour and that there might be potential to reduce memory
consumption.

I like to ask again: Is there only one symbol table for a bfd object ?

Regards

Ralf
