[svn-r5519] Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The "dirty" flag for symbol table entries and symbol table nodes was not
being cleared when they were flushed to the file, causing lots of extra
metadata I/O.
Solution:
Reset the symbol table entry & nodes' flags when thy are flushed to disk.
This reduces the number of I/O operations which hit the disk for my test
program from 83 to 53 (i.e. from 393 to 53, overall).
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 (arabica) w/FORTRAN & FreeBSD 4.5 (sleipnir) w/C++
