     1.6 +	* gdbtypes.c (make_qualified_type): Doc fix.  Add assertion to
     1.7 +	prevent cross-objfile references.
     1.8 +	(make_cv_type): Doc fix.  Don't create cross-objfile references,
     1.9 +	even for stub types.
    1.10 +	(replace_type): Add assertion to prevent cross-objfile references.
    1.11 +	(check_typedef): Never resolve a stub type by copying over a type
    1.12 +	from another file.
