  I spotted that if a user specifies an executable with a target:
prefix, e.g.:

  (gdb) file target:/path/to/exec

Then GDB _almost_ does what we'd want.  This is definitely suppsosed
to work as there's some code in place to support this .... but there's
also a bug.  Patch #5 fixes this issue.

Patches #1 to #4 are various bits of cleanup and refactoring that fell
out while I was working on patch #5.

Andrew Burgess (5):
  gdb: some additional filename styling
  gdb: use archive name in warning when appropriate
  gdb: remove use of a static buffer for building error strings
  gdb: remove print_sys_errmsg
  gdb: fix reread_symbols when an objfile has target: prefix
