This morning I tried the vanilla GDB 7.2 release, the vanilla GDB
7.3.1 release, and various git branches from the archer branch
(http://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/ProjectArcher), specifically the
"archer-jankratochvil-vla" and "archer-tromey-python" branches. I was
unable to get the correct behavior using any of those branches. Does
anyone have any specific knowledge of where the bug is fixed?
