That is from:
#0 in elf_slurp_reloc_table_from_section (abfd, asect, rel_hdr, reloc_count=1170, relents, symbols, dynamic=1) at elfcode.h:1482
#1 in bfd_elf64_slurp_reloc_table (abfd, asect, symbols, dynamic=1) at elfcode.h:1563
#2 in _bfd_elf_get_synthetic_symtab (abfd, symcount=0, syms, dynsymcount=1792, dynsyms, ret) at elf.c:9269
#3 in elf_symfile_read (objfile, symfile_flags=6) at elfread.c:809
Where
elfcode.h:elf_slurp_reloc_table_from_section
contains
ps = symbols + ELF_R_SYM (rela.r_info) - 1;
relent->sym_ptr_ptr = ps;
`symbols' here is elf_symfile_read's `dyn_symbol_table'. `dyn_symbol_table'
got immediately xfree'd but the freed memory remained referenced by
asect->relocation (containing the RELENT memory above, stored there by
elf_slurp_reloc_table).
asect->relocation probably does not get used if ABFD is not being read-in the
second time, which happens only if OBJFILE is being created the second time,
which happens due to the error call in the previous mail.
I was curious there elf_symfile_read uses 0 for COPY_NAMES in a similar case:
elf_symtab_read (objfile, ST_REGULAR, symcount, symbol_table, 0);
where SYMBOL_TABLE is also immediately xfreed. But that seems to be correct as
elf_slurp_symbol_table uses
symbase = (elf_symbol_type *) bfd_zalloc (abfd, amt);
for the content where later elfread.c's SYMBOL_TABLE points to. Only the
pointers get xfreed which is OK.
No regressions on {x86_64,x86_64-m32,i686}-fedora14snapshot-linux-gnu.

Fix stale memory references.
* elfread.c: Include libbfd.h.
(elf_symfile_read): Replace xmalloc by bfd_alloc, drop xfree, new
comment.
