Glad you're working on this, and was going to report tonight :)

I looked into it last night too.  I've got cygwin native working with
your solib-target.c, to get a feeling if it would be a good match.  It is.
There is just one case, that I bet you'll be looking into, which is
the relocate_section_addresses solib-target op.  Your implementation
was elf specific.  To get it up working as a fast prototype, I used
a method that wouldn't work for elf.

I stumbled on core dump support, dll loading.  Current win32-nat.c
reads the dlls
that were loaded in the core, on win32_current_sos, depending on core_bfd
being set.  Perhaps we need a new op somewhere, maybe in struct core_fns too.

Anyway, I'm writing this on a hurry.

Perhaps you would want to take a look at my changes, to get a better feeling
of what is needed for win32.  I'll get home in a few hours.

Cheers,
