Description Tom Tromey 2011-05-16 20:59:14 UTC 
I think that a collect inside a while-stepping can collect
the wrong data if a local variable uses a location expression.
I don't have a test case (but see bug 11613), but saw this
reading code.

If correct, one possible fix would be to differentiate
"compiling for while-stepping" so that loclist_tracepoint_var_ref
could compile the entire location expression to AX.
