Sorry about the delay. If this causes no test suite failures, then
it's fine to commit it.

Programs built with bounded pointers
(see http://gcc.gnu.org/projects/bp/main.html )
cause indigestion for gdb because these code paths
are exercised with pst==NULL.
I don't claim to understand anything about this code, or the
implications of pst==NULL, but I do notice that many other places in
this file guard uses of pst with a check for NULL.

I think these are good. Unles there's a reason why
we should take more drastic action (issue a warning
or bail) on a null pointer, let's check them in.

We definitely shouldn't bail. gdb is very usable on BP programs with
this patch.

Yes, this is a cleanup that should be added to the TO DO file.

The previous version of this patch at
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2000-08/msg00073.html
is withdrawn.
At Eli Zaretskii's suggestion, I will attempt to move comments about
the parameters out to a comment preceding the function and I will
attempt to write some prefatory material for those functions which are
lacking it. (Just the ones still in need of protoization however; I
don't intend to add a comment for every undocumented function in gdb! :-)
I'll wait another day before committing it.
* ch-exp.c (parse_opt_name_string): Protoize. [Thanks to Eli
Zaretskii for the prefatory comment.]
* core-regset.c (fetch_core_registers): Protoize.
