Target sections added by the add-symbol-file-from-memory command are not
removed when the process exits. In fact, they are not removed, at all.
This causes GDB to crash in gdb.base/break-interp.exp.
Change the owner of those target sections to the object file generated in
symbol_file_add_from_memory and generalize the free_objfile observer in
symfile.c to remove target sections of any freed object file.

* symfile.c (symfile_free_objfile): Remove restriction to
OBJF_USERLOADED.
* symfile-mem.c (symbol_file_add_from_memory): Call
add_target_sections_of_objfile.

This comment is now stale. How about:
/* Remove the target sections owned by this objfile. */
?
Otherwise OK.
Thanks!
