   How are you testing this?  I'm seeing:

   dwarf2-frame.c:1083: internal-error: Unsupported encoding: DW_EH_PE_indirect

If your toolchain really generates DW_EH_PE_indirect, it's a different
problem; I don't know how to properly support this :-(.

The problem fixed by the patch is different: because we failed to do
proper alignment gdb was essentially interpreting garbage.  Now if
that garbage accidentally matched DW_EH_PE_indirect, it could lead to
the error message you're seeing.

Anyway, I noticed the problem when writing some code at work.
Unfortunately I don't know how to convert it into a test case.

Cheers,
