Actually this is being done already - it is just that the code that did this
was broken...

Please try out the uploaded patch and let me know what you think.

The patch includes a lot of formatting and coding tidy-ups, (although not the
full code refactoring that you suggested), so it may be hard to find the real
changes.  The fixes are as follows:

  1. Correctly initialize the rel_type field in the arm_section structure.

  2. When displaying the function name, use the computed function
section/offset abdaddr structure, not the entry absaddr structure.

Cheers
  Nick
