[Bug corefiles/14983] GDB 7.5.1 crash due to NULL pointer referenceat -break-insert


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14983

--- Comment #2 from Gerard Zagema <forum at emblocks dot org> 2013-03-07 06:44:24 UTC ---
The bug can be triggered if you take an ARM build and load a file created with
the RealView compiler from ELF.

I could send you such file but you also need another patch to solve another bug
in the same file which takes care of the path separators, a bug which is for
ages in GDB.

The previous versions always go right because the NULL_POINTER was tested and
now it is used without test which will give a crash instantly if I try to set a
breakpoint.

The 7.5.1 version is, with the modifications I did, working fine.

Regards

Gerard
