When running test-case gdb.server/connect-with-no-symbol-file.exp on
aarch64-linux (specifically, an opensuse leap 15.5 container on a
fedora asahi 39 system), I run into:
...
(gdb) detach^M
Detaching from program: target:connect-with-no-symbol-file, process 185104^M
Ending remote debugging.^M
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'gdb_exception_error'^M
...
The detailed backtrace of the corefile is:
...

The abort happens because a c++ exception escapes to c code, specifically
opncls_bstat in bfd/opncls.c. Compiling with -fexceptions works around this.
Fix this by catching the exception just before it escapes, in stat_trampoline
(a lambda function in gdb_bfd_openr_iovec):
...
try
{
return obj->stat (abfd, sb);
}
catch (const gdb_exception_error &)
{
/* If some error triggered an exception, silently transform it a
negative result, to prevent it from escaping to C code and
triggering an abort. */
return -1;
}
...
and likewise in few similar spot.
Alternatively, we could save it and rethrow it once back in c++, but I don't
know the error handling design well enough to judge whether that's necessary.
So for now, go with this trivial solution.
Tested on aarch64-linux.
