            Bug ID: 16260
           Summary: missing file modification tests
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: symtab
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: tromey at redhat dot com

Currently dwarf2read can open BFDs for a dwz file, a dwo file,
or a dwp file.  However, no higher layer checks whether these
files have been modified.  This is unlike the handling of
the objfile's BFD, where gdb checks whether it must be re-read
at various points.
It seems to me that there should be a new sym_fns method to
check this.  The default implementation can do what is done now,
and check just the objfile's BFD mtime.
