   GLOBAL FUNCTION

   coff_solib_add -- add a shared library files to the symtab list.  We
   examine the `.lib' section of the exec file and determine the names of
   the shared libraries.

   This function is responsible for discovering those names and
   addresses, and saving sufficient information about them to allow
   their symbols to be read at a later time.

   SYNOPSIS

   void coff_solib_add (char *arg_string, int from_tty,
   struct target_ops *target, int readsyms)

   GLOBAL FUNCTION

   coff_solib_create_inferior_hook -- shared library startup support

   SYNOPSIS

   void coff_solib_create_inferior_hook ()

   DESCRIPTION

   When gdb starts up the inferior, the kernel maps in the shared
   libraries.  We get here with the target stopped at it's first
   instruction, and the libraries already mapped.  At this      point, this
   function gets called via expansion of the macro
   SOLIB_CREATE_INFERIOR_HOOK.
