Err, personally, I think the current arrangement (libbfd doing the
section work) is good -- it allows you to pull them apart with e.g.
objcopy :-)

GDB really should be working with "bfd sections", which do not secessarily
map 1:1 with actual sections in the file.  The .reg and .reg2 bfd sections
are actually in one file section, even in Solaris.

Err... gdb already deals with this properly.  As far as I can tell, anyway.
