I just wanted to say: I tried your earlier patch locally. With it,
gdb crashes a lot less when debugging gcj-compiled code. In
particular, I can re-run the inferior more or less reliably (whereas
before this would crash gdb pretty reliably). I'm keeping it in my
gdb tree to make my life easier.
I'll save this new patch and hopefully someday find the time to see if
it helps.
