I do not think that leaving these functions where they are will
complicate the process of cleaning them up. Could you explain
why you see this as a problem?
As with inf-child and inf-ptrace, an important objective here is to get
all the inf-linux methods local to a file so that we can ensure that all
accesses are strictly via the target vector. Leaving them where they
are defeats this, a little.
So the reason you want them all in one file is so that you can make
them all static, and ensure they aren't accessed "on the side". Is
that right? That's a good technical reason for this patch, one which I
didn't think of and you didn't explain. I'm just trying to get you to
share your wisdom with all us other maintainers.
With that explanation presented, I have no objection. Let's make sure
Michael agrees.
