Subject:  symify patch
Precedence: bulk

I have noticed problems with symify, with certain big executables,
using gcc 2.8.1. It turned out to be a problem in syms.c. If
f_aux[i+1].x_sym.x_misc.x_lnsz.x_lnno == 0, several parts of memory
were overwritten with garbage. A patch follows.

I hope it helps (enough :).
