   based on the ELF file header at EHDR_VMA and the ELF program headers it
42
   points to.  If not null, *LOADBASEP is filled in with the difference

   The function READ_MEMORY is called to copy at least MINREAD and at most

   MAXREAD bytes from the remote memory at target address ADDRESS into the
48
   local buffer at DATA; it should return -1 for errors (with code in
49
   `errno'), 0 if it failed to read at least MINREAD bytes due to EOF, or
50
   the number of bytes read if >= MINREAD.  ARG is passed through.
