* dbxread.c (dbx_symfile_init, elfstab_build_psymtabs):

	Call new bfd_get_size() and verify that string table is no larger
	than the file that is supposed to contain it.
	* symfile.c (syms_from_objfile):  Only complain about configured
	NAMES_HAVE_UNDERSCORE differences between gdb and bfd if the
	current target is the default BFD target.

+     doesn't match the static setting from the GDB config files, but only
+     if we are using the first BFD target (the default target selected by
+     the same configuration that decided whether NAMES_HAVE_UNDERSCORE is
+     defined or not).  For other targets (such as when the user sets GNUTARGET
+     or we are reading a "foreign" object file), it is likely that the value
+     of bfd_get_symbol_leading_char has no relation to the value of
+     NAMES_HAVE_UNDERSCORE for the target for which this gdb was built.
+     Hack alert: the only way to currently do this with bfd is to ask it to
+     produce a list of known target names and compare the first one in the
+     list with the one for the bfd we are using.
      FIXME:  Remove this check after a round of testing.
