I am not totally sure about this.  The patch itself looks reasonable,
but I have a couple of questions.

Do you need to apply the same treatment to full symbols?  What happens
if the psymtab is expanded for some other reason and a full symbol of
this sort is then created?  Or is that already impossible?

What about has_section_at_zero?

Tom
