Also, we know the address of the vDSO/gate (symfile-mem.c). Can't
we use that to match instead of the name?
I think that's what Ulrich meant in
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13097#c1
with
"You must already have magic code in gdb to handle this DSO".
ISTR having seen a patch that does that, but I can't seem to find it.
