  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <ar.h>

  #include <filehdr.h>
  #include <syms.h>
  #include <ldfcn.h>


  int ldahread (ldptr, arhead)
  LDFILE *ldptr;
  ARCHDR *arhead;

DESCRIPTION
  If TYPE(ldptr) is the archive file magic number, ldahread reads the archive
  header of the common object file currently associated with ldptr into the
  area of memory beginning at arhead.

  archive file or if it cannot read the archive header, ldahread fails.
