Yes, that's probably it.  If you stay connected to the target after
mourning, you may want to look at the new target_mark_exited.  I
haven't had time to contribute the target extended-remote bits that

Assertion, please.  If we found a frame-relative symbol then it was
certainly within some function associated with a frame.  If we can't
find the frame, something has gone wrong.
