commit 5fea97943259a2bd997f92ffa66116b5c0d4eaab
Author: Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com>

    Improve Ada support in .gdb_index
    
    The cooked index work changed how .gdb_index is constructed, and in
    the process broke .gdb_index support.  This is PR symtab/29179.
    
    This patch partially fixes the problem.  It arranges for Ada names to
    be encoded in the form expected by the index code.  In particular,
    linkage names for Ada are emitted, including the "main" name; names
    are Ada-encoded; and names are no longer case-folded, something that
    prevented operator names from round-tripping correctly.
