+/* Create a new BFD as if by bfd_openr.  Rather than opening a file,
+   reconstruct an ELF file by reading the segments out of remote memory
+   based on the ELF file header at EHDR_VMA and the ELF program headers it
+   points to.  If not null, *LOADBASEP is filled in with the difference
+   between the VMAs from which the segments were read, and the VMAs the
+   file headers (and hence BFD's idea of each section's VMA) put them at.
+
+   The function TARGET_READ_MEMORY is called to copy LEN bytes from the
+   remote memory at target address VMA into the local buffer at MYADDR; it
+   should return zero on success or an `errno' code on failure.  TEMPL must
+   be a BFD for an ELF target with the word size and byte order found in
+   the remote memory.  */
