197 didn't scale.

215 information available to gdbarch about the (possibly new)
216 architecture; ARCHES which is a list of the previously created
217 ``struct gdbarch'' for this architecture.
219 The INFO parameter is, as far as possible, be pre-initialized with
220 information obtained from INFO.ABFD or the global defaults.
222 The ARCHES parameter is a linked list (sorted most recently used)
223 of all the previously created architures for this architecture
224 family. The (possibly NULL) ARCHES->gdbarch can used to access
225 values from the previously selected architecture for this
226 architecture family.
228 The INIT function shall return any of: NULL - indicating that it
229 doesn't recognize the selected architecture; an existing ``struct
230 gdbarch'' from the ARCHES list - indicating that the new
231 architecture is just a synonym for an earlier architecture (see
232 gdbarch_list_lookup_by_info()); a newly created ``struct gdbarch''
233 - that describes the selected architecture (see gdbarch_alloc()).
