Agreed - moved thusly.

All fixed. These two routines are the two left in remote-wtx-utils
after the exercise. I was thinking of moving them to a non-wtx context,
but it turns out I forgot that one of them (load_shared_lib) is more
than just a dlopen wrapper. What I had forgotten is that function takes
a library name (eg: "wtx40", and build the DSO filename depending on
the host filesystem -> either libwtx40.so or wtx40.dll). It would have
been too easy if it was just a matter of using a .so vs .dll extension...
So it really belongs in a vxworks-specific unit.
I thought it might have been useful to have a gdb_dlfcn.h module that
abstracts out shared library support. It's relatively easy to write,
the code itself, but it's the packaging that raises questions. See the
revision history that I wrote for patch 0003.2 (attached). In any case,
I made it easier for this to happen, when/if we want to.
Here are 2 new patches, replacing patch 0003...

New general purpose routines in utils.c
These are some general-purpose routines that were added for the VxWorks
port... Hopefully other parts of the GDB code will make use of them.

[vxworks] New module remote-wtx-utils
This module provides a couple of routines to deal with loading the
VxWorks host-side shared libraries, such as the WTX library for instance.
I rewrote a bit the routines to depend on two functions gdb_dlopen and
gdb_dlsym which we could isolate in its own gdb_dlfcn.h/c if we wanted to.
But since this is used only when adding the vxworks target, I kept these
routines local for now - otherwise, it opens the door for questions such
as: What do we do when these are not defined? Should we fail the configure
even though chances are these routines might not be actually needed for
the build? Or do we fail the configure only when they are in fact needed
(ideal, but harder to maintain I believe), or do we just fail at link
time (a bit ugly but much easier to implement)? For now, I don't think
we really need to answer these questions, but I wrote the code in a way
that it makes it easy to extract the code and create the module if we
ever need to.
