I went the easy way:
+    *(int*)0=0;

And got this output:
../../gdb/cp-support.c:1589: demangler-warning: unable to demangle '__progname' (demangler failed with signal 11)
Unable to dump core, use `ulimit -c unlimited' before executing GDB next time.
../../gdb/cp-support.c:1603: demangler-warning: unable to demangle '__progname' (demangler failed with signal 11)
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n) n
then:
(gdb) demangle __progname
Can't demangle "__progname"


The same as without this patch applied.

Although I am confused because I don't see where error_reported gets reset.
