This fix for:

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb/2004-03/msg00212.html

and the DWARF 2 frame info support, was stolen from elfread.c.

2004-04-07  Brian Ford  <ford@vss.fsi.com>

	* coffread.c (coff_symfile_read): Prevent mixed debugging formats
	from corrupting/reinitializing the psymtab.  Support DWARF 2 frame
	info.
	* dbxread.c (elfstab_build_psymtabs): Remove bogus comment.

dbxread.c comment patch approval:
