--- Comment #16 from philippe.waroquiers at skynet dot be ---
I evaluated the change to ask the question independently
of the fact that the current loaded file has symbols, i.e. removing
the following part of the condition :
  (have_full_symbols () || have_partial_symbols ())
to ask the "Load new symbol table" question.

This seems to be a significant change in behaviour that triggers
about 1200 new failures in the gdb testsuite.
The ratio (cost+risk)/benefit looks poor for this change.

Another possible way to fix this is to replace the value "ask"
by "load" (and explain in the doc that typically, a question is asked
before loading the new file):

  (gdb) h set exec-file-mismatch=20
  Set exec-file-mismatch handling (load|warn|off).
  Specifies how to handle a mismatch between the current exec-file name
  loaded by GDB and the exec-file name automatically determined when attach=
ing
  to a process:

   load - warn the user and load the determined exec-file.
   warn - warn the user, but do not change the exec-file.
   off  - do not check for mismatch.
  (gdb)=20


WDYT ?
