Re: [patch/rfc] Assume generic dummy frames (breaks ns32k)


Hello,

This tweaks gdbarch.sh to hardwire DEPRECATED_USE_GENERIC_DUMMY_FRAMES to one.

Since the ns32k does not yet use generic dummy frames, the patch will break the ns32k's inferior function call support (that's assuming it is working - that isn't clear). It won't affect other aspects of the ns32k support.

See: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb/2004-03/msg00203.html
for the original proposal.  As it notes, this change has been pending for _9_ years.

With this in place, removing huge hunks of code become possible.

I've checked this in. Expect lots of ``obvious'' fallout.
