As the oposite to --readnow, I'd like to propose a new option --readnever (i.e., don't read in the symbolic debug inf). That and a few lines of script should let GDB implemement a direct equivalent to pstack (called gstack say).
An alternative to this would be to have a --read=WHEN switch, which could accept 3 arguments: `now', `asneeded' (the default), and `never'.
However, I must admit that, like Mark, I don't see the situation where this would be useful. Could you perhaps describe such a situation, and explain how the existance of the new option would help, including the auxiliary script and the relation to `pstack'?
