Tom de Vries 829b6b3736 Fix gdb.cp/gdb2495.exp on powerpc64le
On powerpc64le-linux I ran into this FAIL:
...
(gdb) p exceptions.throw_function()^M
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'int'^M
^M
Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.^M
0x00007ffff7979838 in raise () from /lib64/libc.so.6^M
The program being debugged was signaled while in a function called from GDB.^M
GDB remains in the frame where the signal was received.^M
To change this behavior use "set unwindonsignal on".^M
Evaluation of the expression containing the function^M
(SimpleException::throw_function()) will be abandoned.^M
When the function is done executing, GDB will silently stop.^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.cp/gdb2495.exp: call a function that raises an exception \
  without a handler.
...

The following happens:
- we start an inferior call
- an internal breakpoint is set on the global entry point of std::terminate
- the inferior call uses the local entry point
- the breakpoint is not triggered
- we run into std::terminate

We can fix this by simply adding the missing gdbarch_skip_entrypoint call in
create_std_terminate_master_breakpoint, but we try to do this a bit more
generic, by:
- adding a variant of function create_internal_breakpoint which takes a
  minimal symbol instead of an address as argument
- in the new function:
  - using both gdbarch_convert_from_func_ptr_addr and gdbarch_skip_entrypoint
  - documenting why we don't need to use gdbarch_addr_bits_remove
  - adding a note about possibly
    needing gdbarch_deprecated_function_start_offset.
- using the new function in:
  - create_std_terminate_master_breakpoint
  - create_exception_master_breakpoint_hook, which currently uses only
    gdbarch_convert_from_func_ptr_addr.

Note: we could use the new function in more locations in breakpoint.c, but
as we're not aware of any related failures, we declare this out of scope for
this patch.

Tested on x86_64-linux, powerpc64le-linux.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
