This is fixed in the next version of the parent commit,
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2020-May/168348.html

I had previously missed another instance where a NULL element was passed

Thanks, those commands also helped a lot in analyzing the test failures
I experienced with my patch series for the new test you have created.
