"struct sec" -> "struct bfd_section"?

Hello,

What would be the reaction to having "typedef asection"s underlying 
struct renamed to "struct bfd_section"?  The objective here is to make 
an official namespace-proof opaque declaration available to clients.  I 
asked about "struct sec" and got all sorts of pushback.

A rollout would be as follows:
- #define bfd_section sec
- go through the code base and s/struct sec/struct bfd_section/
- update the definition
It would be phased in over several months.

thoughts?
Andrew
