87    flag that specifies whether or not this bfd is for an executable
88    or not (may be shared library for example), add all the global
89    function and data symbols to the minimal symbol table.

147 /* Scan and build partial symbols for a symbol file.
148    We have been initialized by a call to nlm_symfile_init, which
149    currently does nothing.
150 
151    SECTION_OFFSETS is a set of offsets to apply to relocate the symbols
152    in each section.  We simplify it down to a single offset for all
153    symbols.  FIXME.
154 
155    MAINLINE is true if we are reading the main symbol
156    table (as opposed to a shared lib or dynamically loaded file).
157 
158    This function only does the minimum work necessary for letting the
159    user "name" things symbolically; it does not read the entire symtab.
160    Instead, it reads the external and static symbols and puts them in partial
161    symbol tables.  When more extensive information is requested of a
162    file, the corresponding partial symbol table is mutated into a full
163    fledged symbol table by going back and reading the symbols
164    for real.
165 
166    Note that NLM files have two sets of information that is potentially
167    useful for building gdb's minimal symbol table.  The first is a list
168    of the publically exported symbols, and is currently used to build
169    bfd's canonical symbol table.  The second is an optional native debugging
170    format which contains additional symbols (and possibly duplicates of
171    the publically exported symbols).  The optional native debugging format
172    is not currently used. */
