    If lookup_symbol_file tries to locate a member variable with NULL name:

          /* A simple lookup failed.  Check if the symbol was defined in
             a base class.  */

          cleanup = make_cleanup (null_cleanup, NULL);

          /* Find the name of the class and the name of the method,
             variable, etc.  */
          prefix_len = cp_entire_prefix_len (name);

          /* If no prefix was found, search "this".  */
          if (prefix_len == 0)
            {
              struct type *type;
              struct symbol *this;

             this = lookup_language_this (language_def (language_cplus),
block);
              if (this == NULL)
                {
                  do_cleanups (cleanup);
                  return NULL;
                }

              type = check_typedef (TYPE_TARGET_TYPE (SYMBOL_TYPE (this)));
              klass = xstrdup (TYPE_NAME (type));
              nested = xstrdup (name);
            }

    TYPE_NAME (type) is NULL, so xstrdup (NULL) and boom!

    This can happen, e.g., with clang++.  See
testsuite/gdb.cp/namelessclass.exp
    or the bugzilla report.

    This patch simply adds a fencepost against this case, allowing the caller
    of lookup_symbol_file to search other blocks for the right symbol.
