Re: [patch] Fix separate-debug with non-unique section names (PR 11409)

OK, attached.
build_section_addr_info_from_objfile could also be kept intact (just creating
new build_section_addr_info_from_bfd).
While there is some new code I have not found easier way. Also the complexity
is now reduced (n^2 -> n*log(n)); not that it would matter.
No regressions on {x86_64,x86_64-m32,i686}-fedora12-linux-gnu.
Thanks,

* symfile.c (build_section_addr_info_from_bfd): New.
(build_section_addr_info_from_objfile): Base it on
build_section_addr_info_from_bfd.
(addrs_section_compar, addrs_section_sort): New.
(addr_info_make_relative): New variables my_cleanup, abfd_addrs,
addrs_sorted, abfd_addrs_sorted and addrs_to_abfd_addrs. Build
addrs_to_abfd_addrs. Use it for recalculating ADDRS.
