Speed up GDB startup time by not demangling partial symbols.
* symfile.h (ADD_PSYMBOL_VT_TO_LIST), symfile.c (add_psymbol_to_list, add_psymbol_addr_to_list): No longer demangle partial symbols. * symtab.c (lookup_symbol, list_symbols): Handle mangled variables, e.g. C++ static members, via the minimal symbols. Handle reordered functions in an objfile, for Irix 5.2 shared libraries. * objfiles.h (OBJF_REORDERED): New bit in the objfile flags, set if the functions in an objfile are reordered. * mdebugread.c (parse_partial_symbols): Detect reordered functions in an objfile. * symtab.c (find_pc_psymtab, find_pc_symtab): Use expensive lookup algorithm if the functions in the objfile are reordered. * xcoffexec.c (exec_close): If the current target has a copy of the exec_ops sections, reflect the freeing of the sections in current_target. * valops.c (call_function_by_hand): Use `sizeof dummy1', not `sizeof dummy', for constructing the call dummy code. * config/sparc/tm-sparc.h: Add PARAMS declarations to all function declarations. * sparc-tdep.c (sparc_pop_frame): Cast result of read_memory_integer to CORE_ADDR when passing it to PC_ADJUST. * irix5-nat.c (enable_break): Set breakpoint at the entry point of the executable, to handle the case where main resides in a shared library. * irix5-nat.c (solib_create_inferior_hook): Reset stop_soon_quietly after shared library symbol reading, to get rid of a warning from heuristic_proc_start if the startup code has no symbolic debug info. * breakpoint.h (struct breakpoint): Add new fields language and input_radix, to enable breakpoint resetting with the proper language and radix. * breakpoint.c (set_raw_breakpoint): Initialize them. (breakpoint_re_set_one): Use them when resetting the breakpoint. (breakpoint_re_set): Preserve current language and input_radix across breakpoint_re_set_one calls. * symtab.c (decode_line_1): Do not build a canonical line specification for `*expr' line specifications. * breakpoint.h (bpstat_stop_status): Fix prototype declaration.
