Tom de Vries 70bc38f513 [gdb/symtab] Prefer def over decl (inter-CU case, with context)
This is a follow-up patch on "[PATCH][gdb/symtab] Prefer def over decl
(inter-CU case)" (
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2020-April/167489.html ).

Consider the test-case from that patch.  It contains a decl and def of var a
in different CUs, and tests whether var a can be printed using the def, even
if the decl is found first.

However, the test-case does this in a contextless environment, so if we add to
the test-case like this to set the context to the CU containing main:
...
 gdb_test "p a" { = \{1, 2\}}
+
+if ![runto_main] then {
+    fail "can't run to main"
+    return 0
+}
+
+gdb_test "p a" { = \{1, 2\}}
...
then the second test fails, because the decl is found in the context.

Fix this by preferring defs over decls in lookup_global_symbol.

Build and reg-tested on x86_64-linux.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
