This doesn't relate to the current frame. The problem is that we
actually identify some frames using null_frame_id, but also overload
it to mean "there is no frame".
I posted a workaround patch last time this came up though I can't find
it right now. There's also a description of the general problem at
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2006-05/msg00109.html.
I wanted to come back to it but I'm currently still stuck on the
inlining patches; only one frame unwinder change at a time for me.
