[RFA] Avoid segfault in decode_line_2


Hi all,
this patch fixes a problem that I met while debugging a testsuite failure on amd64:


> Running gdb-head/gdb/testsuite/gdb.c++/templates.exp ...
> FAIL: gdb.c++/templates.exp: constructor breakpoint (timeout)

(gdb) break T5<int>::T5
-> Segfault in linespec.c:486 [decode_line_2()] because
   values.sals[i].symtab is NULL and dereferencing of
   values.sals[i].symtab->filename crashes.

After some investigation I found out that .debug_line section of the input file was broken (reported to binutils@ list).
However broken debug info is not an excuse for GDB to crash.


OK to apply to head and branch?

	* linespec.c (decode_line_2): Avoid crash if 
	find_function_start_sal() returns empty record.
