Here is what I am checking in.
I was able to reproduce the failure with valgrind, and confirmed that
this patch fixes it.

    Preserve artificial CU name in process_psymtab_comp_unit_reader
    
    This fixes a use-after-free that Simon pointed out.
    process_psymtab_comp_unit_reader was allocating an artificial name for
    a CU, and then discarding it.  However, this name was preserved in the
    cached file_and_directory.  This patch arranges for the allocated name
    to be preserved there.
