As a record, this patch causes regressions at least in
gdb.base/sigstep.exp,

(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/sigstep.exp: continue to handler, si+advance in handler, step from handler: advance in handler
step^M
39      } /* handler */^M
1: x/i $pc^M

(gdb) step^M

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/sigstep.exp: continue to handler, si+advance in handler, step from handler: leave handler

Could you take a look at it?
