/* When handling shared libraries, GDB has to find out the pathnames
   of all shared libraries that are currently loaded (to read in their
   symbols) and where the shared libraries are loaded in memory
   (to relocate them properly from their prelinked addresses to the
   current load address).

   Under OSF/1 there are two possibilities to get at this information:

   1) Peek around in the runtime loader structures.
   These are not documented, and they are not defined in the system
   header files. The definitions below were obtained by experimentation,
   but they seem stable enough.

   2) Use the libxproc.a library, which contains the equivalent ldr_*
   routines.  The library is documented in Tru64 5.x, but as of 5.1, it
   only allows a process to examine itself.  On earlier versions, it
   may require that the GDB executable be dynamically linked and that
   NAT_CLIBS include -lxproc -Wl,-expect_unresolved,ldr_process_context
   for GDB and all applications that are using libgdb.

   We will use the peeking approach until libxproc.a works for other
   processes.  */
