2006-01-17  Jim Blandy  <jimb@redhat.com>

	* symtab.h (struct general_symbol_info): Use gdb_byte for
	value.bytes.
	* stabsread.c (define_symbol): Use gdb_byte for the buffer holding
	a floating-point constant's value.
	* dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_const_value): Remove casts of value buffer
	to char *.
	* findvar.c (read_var_value): Eliminate needless temporary.
