_bfd_free_cached_info
doc/bfdint.texi and comments in the aout and som code about this function are just wrong, and its name is not very apt. Better would be _bfd_mostly_destroy, and we certainly should not be saying anything about the possibility of later recreating anything lost by this function. What's more, if _bfd_free_cached_info is called when creating an archive map to reduce memory usage by throwing away symbols, the target _close_and_cleanup function won't have access to tdata or section bfd_user_data to tidy memory. This means most of the target _close_and_cleanup function won't do anything, and therefore sometimes will result in memory leaks. This patch fixes the documentation problems and moves most of the target _close_and_cleanup code to target _bfd_free_cached_info. Another notable change is that bfd_generic_bfd_free_cached_info is now defined as _bfd_free_cached_info rather than _bfd_bool_bfd_true, ie. the default now frees objalloc memory.
