* elf.c (bfd_elf_find_section): Mark as INTERNAL_FUNCTION so
its prototype will be included in libbfd.h. Change result type to struct * (rather than equivalent typedef) so it can be used in the prototype, where they typedef won't be known. * libbfd.h: Updated version.

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