[Bug c++/11031] New: gdb terminates when trying to set breakpoint at C++ exception

["eran dot ifrah at gmail dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla@sourceware.org>]

Hi,

I am using MinGW (g++4.4.0) + gdb 7.0.
If I set from a breakpoint: 'catch throw'
the minute I type 'c' to the debugger it crashes with the following error message:

"../../gdb-7.0/gdb/breakpoint.c:5989: internal-error: expand_line_sal_maybe: Asse
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n) y
../../gdb-7.0/gdb/breakpoint.c:5989: internal-error: expand_line_sal_maybe: Asse
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Create a core file of GDB? (y or n) y

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information."

the same happens if I try to break at:
b __cxa_throw

Note: both used to work with gdb6.8, I dont want to downgrade since I really
like the unicode support introduced in 7.0
