I'm not sure I understand what you're doing.  Don't you already have
the run-time linker's offsets?  If you assume that any file you've
opened is the same as the one running in the target process, then all
it takes is combining the two; p_vaddr plus the offset from the link
map.

It's much trickier in GDB because we support remote debugging and
core dumps; the library may have been re-prelinked to a different
address.
