I'm checking this in on the call-frame-cfa branch.

This comes from this bug report:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=516627

The bug here is that the frame was unwound using the inline unwinder.
The fix is to unwind to the first non-inline frame.

We may still run into problems with the epilogue unwinders here.  I
expect these problems to be pretty rare, though.  We could fix them by
either disabling the epilogue unwinders when not doing reverse debugging
(at least, I thought they were only needed in that scenario) or by
lowering their priority in the future, because IIUC GCC is now
generating proper epilogue metadata.
