|

| 19 | Helper functions for GDB to locate the string tables.
|
|---|
| 20 | Since BFD hides string tables from callers, GDB needs to use an
|
|---|
| 21 | internal hook to find them. Sun's .stabstr, in particular,
|
|---|
| 22 | isn't even pointed to by the .stab section, so ordinary
|
|---|
| 23 | mechanisms wouldn't work to find it, even if we had some.
