    Fix crash in amd64-tdep.c
    
    amd64-tdep.c could crash when 'finish'ing from a function whose return
    type had variable length.  In this situation, the value will be passed
    by reference, and this patch avoids the crash.
    
    (Note that this does not fully fix the bug reported, but it does fix
    the crash, so it seems worthwhile to land independently.)
