+ symbols. FIXME.
+
+ MAINLINE is true if we are reading the main symbol
+ table (as opposed to a shared lib or dynamically loaded file).
+
+ This function only does the minimum work necessary for letting the
+ user "name" things symbolically; it does not read the entire symtab.
+ Instead, it reads the external and static symbols and puts them in partial
+ symbol tables. When more extensive information is requested of a
+ file, the corresponding partial symbol table is mutated into a full
+ fledged symbol table by going back and reading the symbols
+ for real.
+
+ Note that NLM files have two sets of information that is potentially
+ useful for building gdb's minimal symbol table. The first is a list
+ of the publically exported symbols, and is currently used to build
+ bfd's canonical symbol table. The second is an optional native debugging
+ format which contains additional symbols (and possibly duplicates of
+ the publically exported symbols). The optional native debugging format
