Did the word `internal-error' appear anywhere in that text?  Hmm, lets try:
	(gdb) maint internal-error
in the console window and see what happens.  Er, no message :-(  Oops!

Bug.

Until that bug is fixed, suggest keeping a console open.

Anyway, does you insight source code base contain:

2002-11-27  Andrew Cagney  <cagney@redhat.com>

         * generic/gdbtk-stack.c (get_frame_name): Use get_frame_type
         instead of deprecated_frame_in_dummy.
         * generic/gdbtk-cmds.c (gdb_loc): Ditto.

?
