             Bug #: 13866
           Summary: crashes from stale frame_info *
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: backtrace
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: jan.kratochvil@redhat.com
    Classification: Unclassified
            Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

Even FSF GDB HEAD has still stale frame_info pointers:

#1  in freehook (ptr=0xb3c45e0, caller=0x825759) at mcheck.c:211
#2  in xfree (ptr=0xb3c45e0) at ./common/common-utils.c:107
#3  in obstack_free (h=0x1d4ac20, obj=0x0) at obstack.c:367
#4  in reinit_frame_cache () at frame.c:1542 
#5  in switch_to_thread (ptid=...) at thread.c:989
#6  in switch_to_program_space_and_thread (pspace=0x27c38a0) at progspace.c:494 
#7  in skip_prologue_sal (sal=0x24ec190) at symtab.c:2694
#8  in decode_all_digits () at linespec.c:2523
#9  in decode_line_internal () at linespec.c:1132
#10 in decode_line_1 (flags=1default_line=81) at linespec.c:1344
#11 in until_break_command (arg="",from_tty=1,anywhere=0) at breakpoint.c:10532

There are currently too many situations with stale frame_info * after
switch_to_* invalidate them now, IMO reinit_frame_cache needs to be removed in
these simple cases.
