   Do cgen generated disassemblers make any attempt to resolve symbols 
in executables or libraries?

Symbol resolution is largely outside cgen's domain, so to the
extent that the cgen-neutral opcodes/bfd library can do this,
so can the cgen-based ones.  (I said "largely" because it is
possible to write a cgen operand disassembler/formatter that
sidesteps the standard "pretty-print this address" functions.)
