Done.

Thanks for your reviews.  I'll try soon to address the points you
raised and resubmit the patches.  It might be a little while since any
gdb hacking I do is on my own time.

I did run across this function after submitting my patch.  I think my
patch obsoletes this function, and we can investigate removing it.
full_lookup_symtab() doesn't really do the same thing as my patch
though, at least as I understand it.  I'm not 100% certain about what
is going on there since I don't know what the typical inputs to
full_lookup_symtab() look like.

When you say the patch is ok does that mean I can check in the rest of
it?  Or should I try to handle psymtabs and directory names first?
