I have no objections to this with two exceptions:

then maybe that part should be provided separately.

- You seemed to have gratuitously pulled out the code which deals with
cygwin exceptions into a separate function.  I don't think this has
anything to do with solibs and probably shouldn't be part of any
final patch.

Pedro, what do you remember about these? At least, I don't _think_ it was me...


Guilty as charged.


The __CYGWIN__ came from copy/pasting from the gdbserver side of the
patch, where it is needed.  It can be easily removed.

The gratuitousness is only apparent.  Notice that the
cygwin_load_start/cygwin_load_end calculation moved from the
old solib_symbols_add into that new ignore_access_violation_p
function and now uses the master_so_list () to get at cygwin1.dll.
As I was touching the code,  (and I was finding myself reindenting
that big comment, ) I thought of moving it out of handle_exception
to make it cleaner.

Cheers,
Pedro Alves
