--- Comment #2 from Carlos O'Donell <carlos at redhat dot com> ---
I see no reason for keeping pldd.

This does exactly the same:

cat >> pldd.sh <<EOF
#!/bin/sh
gdb -ex "set confirm off" -ex "set height 0" -ex "info shared" -ex "quit" -p $1
| grep '^0x.*0x'
EOF

If we had a dynamic linker library we could use to reuse all of the code that
goes into loading a shared library, then that would be fine.

As it stands today, pldd just isn't that useful. The fact that it's broken
since 2.19 and nobody complained shows it's not used.

I would suggest we remove pldd rather than fixing whatever assumption it has
that's wrong.
