Re: [RFA v2 3/4] Convert Rust to use discriminated unions

[Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>]

Hi Tom,

I was comparing test results from 20180207 and today, I
noticed that gdb.rust/simple.exp regressed:

~~~~~~
Running src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.rust/simple.exp ...
-PASS: gdb.rust/simple.exp: print a 
-PASS: gdb.rust/simple.exp: ptype a 
-PASS: gdb.rust/simple.exp: print sizeof(a) 
-PASS: gdb.rust/simple.exp: print b 
(...)
+UNTESTED: gdb.rust/simple.exp: could not run to breakpoint
~~~~~~

Looking at gdb.log I see:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
gdb) break simple.rs:152
src/gdb/dwarf2read.c:10367: internal-error: discriminant_info* alloc_discriminant_info(type*, int, int): Assertion `default_index == -1 || (default_index > 0 && default_index < TYPE_NFIELDS (type))' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.

This is a bug, please report it.  For instructions, see:

I haven't bisected, but the references to discriminant info make me suspect
this patch I'm replying to.

This is Fedora 27 with:

 $ rustc --version
 rustc 1.13.0 (2c6933acc 2016-11-07)

Thanks,
