Also unlike __eprintf, it was never intended that __frame_state_for be
used outside of libgcc. That has been used is *extremely* irritating.
This was brought to my attention a few days ago. I'm still pondering
what to do about it. It may be possible to re-implement on top of the
new EH code. It may be that glibc must grab the old code from gcc 2.95
and include that in its source.
