One other reason why it's the wrong place to call htab_create is that
any memory malloc'd in an object_p function should result in the
object_p returning a bfd_cleanup function that frees the memory.
bfd_alloc memory is fine in object_p, as alloc'd memory handled by
bfd_check_format_matches.
Another thing, section target_index is renumbered in
coff_compute_section_file_positions and _bfd_xcoff_bfd_final_link. I
don't know that there is currently any way that the output bfd
section_by_target_index could be populated before this point but
clear them out so no one need worry about it.
* coffcode.h (coff_compute_section_file_positions): Clear
section_by_target_index hash table when changing target_index.
(_bfd_xcoff_bfd_final_link): Likewise.
