This is almost certainly PR 12843:

http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12843

This was caused, I believe, by this patch hunk (for locate_first_half in 
linespec.c), which I committed for c++/12750 on 2011-05-31:

           || ((p[0] == ' ') && !*is_quote_enclosed))
         break;
        if (p[0] == '.' && strchr (p, ':') == NULL)

I am intending to get to this, but it will probably not be until later 
this coming week.
