+       Use a hash table when writing out ELF symbol names.
+       * elfcode.h (elf_stringtab_init): New static function.
+       (bfd_new_strtab, bfd_add_to_strtab, bfd_add_2_to_strtab): Remove.
+       Change all callers to use elf_stringtab_init or
+       _bfd_stringtab_add, and get stringtab lengths using
+       _bfd_stringtab_size.
+       (elf_fake_sections): Change ignored argument to pointer to
+       boolean, and set the boolean to true if an error occurs.  If an
+       error has already occurred, don't do anything.
+       (assign_section_numbers): Just set sh_size, not contents.
+       (elf_compute_section_file_positions): Pass the address of a
+       boolean to elf_fake_sections.  Pass the address of a
+       bfd_strtab_hash to swap_out_syms.  Write out the .strtab section.
+       (prep_headers): Change shstrtab to bfd_strtab_hash.
+       (swap_out_syms): Take a pointer to a bfd_strtab_hash as an
+       argument.  Set it to the symbol names.
+       (NAME(bfd_elf,write_object_contents)): Write out the section
+       header names using _bfd_stringtab_emit.
+       (elf_debug_section): Remove first argument; get the section name
+       via the bfd_section pointer.  Change caller.
+       (elf_bfd_final_link): Write out the symbol names using
+       _bfd_stringtab_emit.  Likewise for the .dynstr section contents.
+       Free the symbol names at the end of the function.
+       (elf_link_input_bfd): Remove the last argument, output_names,
+       from relocate_section.  Save the old symbol contents before
+       calling elf_link_output_sym, and restore them afterward.
+       * libelf.h (struct elf_link_hash_table): Change dynstr field to
+       struct bfd_strtab_hash.
+       (struct elf_backend_data): Remove last argument, output_names,
+       from elf_backend_relocate_section field.
+       (struct strtab): Don't define.
+       (struct elf_obj_tdata): Change strtab_ptr field to struct
+       bfd_strtab_hash.
+       * elf32-hppa.c (elf32_hppa_relocate_section): Remove last
+       argument, output_names.
+       * elf32-i386.c (elf_i386_relocate_section): Likewise.
+       * elf32-mips.c (mips_elf_relocate_section): Likewise.
+       * elf32-sparc.c (elf32_sparc_relocate_section): Likewise.
+
        * libbfd-in.h (DEFAULT_STRING_SPACE_SIZE): Don't define.
        (bfd_add_to_string_table): Don't declare.
        * libbfd.h: Rebuild.
