Given a pointer to one of the shared objects in our list

FIXMES
In most (all?) cases the shared object file name recorded in the
dynamic linkage tables will be a fully qualified pathname. For
cases where it isn't, do we really mimic the systems search
mechanism correctly in the below code (particularly the tilde
expansion stuff?).

LOCAL FUNCTION
locate_base -- locate the base address of dynamic linker structs
SYNOPSIS
CORE_ADDR locate_base (void)
DESCRIPTION
For both the SunOS and SVR4 shared library implementations, if the
inferior executable has been linked dynamically, there is a single
address somewhere in the inferior's data space which is the key to
locating all of the dynamic linker's runtime structures. This
address is the value of the symbol defined by the macro DEBUG_BASE.
The job of this function is to find and return that address, or to
return 0 if there is no such address (the executable is statically
linked for example).
For SunOS, the job is almost trivial, since the dynamic linker and
all of it's structures are statically linked to the executable at
link time. Thus the symbol for the address we are looking for has
already been added to the minimal symbol table for the executable's
objfile at the time the symbol file's symbols were read, and all we
have to do is look it up there. Note that we explicitly do NOT want
to find the copies in the shared library.
The SVR4 version is much more complicated because the dynamic linker
and it's structures are located in the shared C library, which gets
run as the executable's "interpreter" by the kernel. We have to go
to a lot more work to discover the address of DEBUG_BASE. Because
of this complexity, we cache the value we find and return that value
on subsequent invocations. Note there is no copy in the executable
symbol tables.
Irix 5 is basically like SunOS.
Note that we can assume nothing about the process state at the time
we need to find this address. We may be stopped on the first instruc-
tion of the interpreter (C shared library), the first instruction of
the executable itself, or somewhere else entirely (if we attached
to the process for example).

When gdb starts up the inferior, it nurses it along (through the

For SunOS executables, this first instruction is typically the

the executable is statically or dynamically linked. The runtime
startup code takes care of dynamically linking in any shared
libraries, once gdb allows the inferior to continue.
For SVR4 executables, this first instruction is either the first
instruction in the dynamic linker (for dynamically linked
executables) or the instruction at "start" for statically linked
executables. For dynamically linked executables, the system
first exec's /lib/libc.so.N, which contains the dynamic linker,
and starts it running. The dynamic linker maps in any needed
shared libraries, maps in the actual user executable, and then
jumps to "start" in the user executable.
For both SunOS shared libraries, and SVR4 shared libraries, we
can arrange to cooperate with the dynamic linker to discover the
names of shared libraries that are dynamically linked, and the
base addresses to which they are linked.
This function is responsible for discovering those names and
addresses, and saving sufficient information about them to allow
their symbols to be read at a later time.
FIXME
Between enable_break() and disable_break(), this code does not
properly handle hitting breakpoints which the user might have
set in the startup code or in the dynamic linker itself. Proper
handling will probably have to wait until the implementation is
changed to use the "breakpoint handler function" method.
Also, what if child has exit()ed? Must exit loop somehow.
