[PATCH] GDB/MI: crash printing "_task" (Ada) argument

Hello,
In GDB/MI mode, trying to print the arguments of the frame corresponding
to the body of a task ("-stack-list-arguments 1") causes the debugger to
crash.
This is because the compiler adds an implicit argument to that task body
called "_task". mi/mi-cmd-stack.c:list_args_or_locals, which is
responsible for printing the value of our arguments, finds that our
"_task" symbol is an argument, and thus tries to fing the non-argument
equivalent:
if (SYMBOL_IS_ARGUMENT (sym))
sym2 = lookup_symbol (SYMBOL_NATURAL_NAME (sym),
block, VAR_DOMAIN,
(int *) NULL);
Unfortunately, it tries using the natural name instead of the search
name when doing the lookup. The correct name to use for symbol lookups
is the search name. In C/C++, it's the same, but not in Ada. In Ada,
"_task"'s natural name is "<_task>", and that symbol does not exist,
so sym2 is NULL, thus causing the crash a little later on when trying
to dereference it.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* mi/mi-cmd-stack.c (list_args_or_locals): For argument symbols,
use SYMBOL_SEARCH_NAME to find the corresponding non-argument
symbol. Add assertion that sym2 is never NULL.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
gdb.ada/mi_task_arg: New testcase.
Tested on x86_64-linux, no regression. I will commit in a few days
unless there are objections.
For the record, I also audited the rest of the code, searching for
lookups obviously using SYMBOL_NATURAL_NAME, but did not find any.
Thanks,

Joel
