Joel Brobecker f7e44f6574 GDB/MI: crash printing "_task" (Ada) argument
In GDB/MI mode, trying to print the arguments of the frame corresponding
to the body of a task ("-stack-list-arguments 1") causes the debugger to
crash.

This is because the compiler adds an implicit argument to that task body
called "_task". mi/mi-cmd-stack.c:list_args_or_locals, which is
responsible for printing the value of our arguments, finds that our
"_task" symbol is an argument, and thus tries to fing the non-argument
equivalent:

              if (SYMBOL_IS_ARGUMENT (sym))
                sym2 = lookup_symbol (SYMBOL_NATURAL_NAME (sym),
                                      block, VAR_DOMAIN,
                                      (int *) NULL);

Unfortunately, it tries using the natural name, which doesn't always
work for Ada parameters, in particular those who are internally-
generated. In our case, The "_task" parameter's natural name is
"<_task>", and that symbol does not exist.  So sym2 is NULL, thus
causing the crash a little later on when trying to dereference it.
We should be using the symbol linkage name in this case, the same
way iterate_over_block_arg_vars already does.

gdb/ChangeLog:

        * mi/mi-cmd-stack.c (list_args_or_locals): For argument symbols,
        use SYMBOL_LINKAGE_NAME to find the corresponding non-argument
        symbol.  Add assertion that sym2 is never NULL.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

        * gdb.ada/mi_task_arg: New testcase.

		   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.
