[PATCH] Adding support for reading signal hanlder frame in AIX

[Sangamesh Mallayya]

Hi Yao,

Yes. As a work around i used dynamic linking to build and test the GDB.

Thanks,
Sangamesh

Out of curiosity, how do you get a working gdb on AIX?  Do you build gdb
with libstdc++ and libgcc dynamic linking?  I remember that GDB's
exception handling on AIX is still broken if libstdc++ and libgcc is
statically linked (which is the default).  See PR 21187
