Description
When testing an object for compatibility with a particular
target back-end, the back-end object_p function needs to set
up certain fields in the bfd on successfully recognizing the
object. This typically happens in a piecemeal fashion, with
failures possible at many points. On failure, the bfd is
supposed to be restored to its initial state, which is
virtually impossible. However, restoring a subset of the bfd
state works in practice. This function stores the subset and
reinitializes the bfd.
