Something seems amiss with get_kernel_table(): it's unable to return
the kernel's unwind table on ia64 linux. I think
ia64_linux_xfer_unwind_table() may need to be hooked up, but I'm not
sure how this is done.
There may be something else that's off: even if I use a workaround (by
calling getunwind() directly from get_kernel_table()), gdb is still
unable to unwind across a signal handler. That definitely used to
work. I'll dig a bit more, but it's late already, so I may not be
able to finish it this year... ;-)
