"No registers" error on connecting to MIPS LSI PMON target

[Atsushi Nemoto <anemo@mba.ocn.ne.jp>]

I tried to use gdb-6.0 for remote-debugging with MIPS LSI PMON.
I got a message "No registers." on "target lsi /dev/ttyS0" command.

I think this is because get_selected_frame() is called BEFORE the
correct target_ops is installed by push_target().

This is a temporary patch.  It seems to work, but I can not tell the
situation mentioned in the "FIXME" comment is really solved or not.
