-/* Read or write from BFD executable files.
-
-   MEMADDR is an address within the target address space, MYADDR is an
-   address within GDB address-space where data is written to, LEN is
-   length of buffer, and WRITE indicates whether to read or write.
-   SECTIONS and SECTIONS_END defines a section table holding sections
-   from possibly multiple BFDs.
-
-   If SECTION_NAME is not NULL, only access sections with that same
-   name.
-
-   Result is a length:
-
-   0:    We cannot handle this address and length.
-   > 0:  We have handled N bytes starting at this address.
-   (If N == length, we did it all.)  We might be able
-   to handle more bytes beyond this length, but no
-   promises.
-   < 0:  We cannot handle this address, but if somebody
-   else handles (-N) bytes, we can start from there.  */
