You patch LGTM.

However, I think it would be worth factoring all of these in a single
function (e.g. error_no_symbol_table).

$ ag '"No symbol table is loaded' | grep -v testsuite
p-exp.y:732:                            error (_("No symbol table is loaded.  "
parse.c:239:    error (_("No symbol table is loaded.  Use the \"file\" command."));
d-exp.y:474:                    error (_("No symbol table is loaded.  Use the \"file\" command"));
symtab.c:4517:    error (_("No symbol table is loaded.  Use the \"file\" command."));
source.c:264:    error (_("No symbol table is loaded.  Use the \"file\" command."));
infcmd.c:540:    error (_("No symbol table is loaded.  Use the \"file\" command."));
go-exp.y:586:                           error (_("No symbol table is loaded.  "
ada-exp.y:1731: error (_("No symbol table is loaded.  Use the \"file\" command."));
cli/cli-cmds.c:1247:    error (_("No symbol table is loaded.  Use the \"file\" command."));
linespec.c:1570:                 _("No symbol table is loaded.  Use the \"file\" command."));
linespec.c:3734:                     _("No symbol table is loaded.  "
c-exp.y:1220:                               error (_("No symbol table is loaded.  Use the \"file\" command."));
