@section File Caching
The file caching mechanism is embedded within BFD and allows the application to open as many
BFDs as it wants without regard to the underlying operating system's
file descriptor limit (often as low as 20 open files).

The module in @code{cache.c} maintains a least recently used list of
@code{BFD_CACHE_MAX_OPEN} files, and exports the name
@code{bfd_cache_lookup} which runs around and makes sure that the
required BFD is open. If not, then it chooses a file to close, closes
it and opens the one wanted, returning its file handle.
