The general case of 2-word structures in 5.3 was broken.  That is to say,
my simple test program (attached to the PR) fails with both 5.3 and HEAD.

I would like to re-suggest my idea that gdb simply print "<unknown>"
or something for all the words beyond the first word in a register
variable.  But I'll back whatever Daniel thinks is right.
