MI: -file-list-exec-source-files

[Nick Roberts]

The command "-file-list-exec-source-files" often (always?) prints out each
file twice:

-file-list-exec-source-files
^done,files=[{file="myprog.c",fullname="/home/nickrob/myprog.c"},{file="myprint.c",fullname="/home/nickrob/myprint.c"},{file="myprint.c",fullname="/home/nickrob/myprint.c"},{file="myprog.c",fullname="/home/nickrob/myprog.c"}]

Looking at the code I had hoped that one cane from the symbol table and the
other from the partial symbol table but in fact, when I try it, they both
come from the partial symbol table.  When the program being debugged has lots
of source files (1000's) this is very wasteful, so I would like to make this
command just print out each file once.  Before I do I'd like to ask:

Why does the partial symbol table have duplicate copies?

Is it safe to assume that duplicates will occur consecutively?
