I agree the solib-svr4.c split looks a bit complex to me.

I tried to copy how windows-nat.c works, which even in local mode produces and
consumes the XML document, exchanged internally as TARGET_OBJECT_LIBRARIES.
Therefore the core svr4_current_sos function would also produce
TARGET_OBJECT_LIBRARIES XML document, even in local run.
Sure other solutions exist but this unifies the remote and local codepath the
most.
I do not think it is any problem to require + bundle libexpat, there was even
some FAQ of people with broken GDB for ARM remote targets before some proper
error messages were added indicating libexpat is missing for GDB.

While it is a detail it saves 46 LoC (Lines of Code) and it IMO also makes the
code more readable. Getting the list and producing the XML are two different
parts of code.

Unfortunately the solib-svr4.c part is not so trivial as this one but IMO it
should be also done, I could get to it only later.

* inferiors.c (clear_all_dlls): New function.
(clear_inferiors): Move there the code from here, call it here.
* linux-low.c (linux_qxfer_libraries): Rename to ...
(linux_refresh_libraries): ... here. Drop all the XML handling. Call
clear_all_dlls and loaded_dll instead. Clear DLLS_CHANGED.
(linux_target_ops): Rename linux_qxfer_libraries to
linux_refresh_libraries.
* server.c (handle_qxfer_libraries): Likewise. Continue execution even
if REFRESH_LIBRARIES exists.
* server.h (clear_all_dlls): New prototype.
* target.h (struct target_ops): Rename linux_qxfer_libraries to
linux_refresh_libraries. Drop its parameters and return type.
