I can imagine how the problem can manifest, but do you have a
reproducer?  I tried stepping with the binary of test
gdb.base/jit-reader.exp, but I couldn't get it to crash.  Ideally, this
fix should come with a test to demonstrate the problem and the fix.

I would suggest using push_back instead of assign.  Everybody knows
push_back, whereas I had to look up what assign does, I guess I'm not
the only one.
