Hello,

In alpha-mdebug-tdep.c, the frame address in block is used to locate
the mdebug information associated to a function... except for one
occurence, in alpha_mdebug_frame_unwind_cache, where the return
address is used. I fail to understand why, and it seems wrong to me:
the return address may point to the "next" function in .text, so we
may end up fetching the wrong debug record. This typically happens with
no-return functions that do not have epilogue sequences.

This patch should fix this. This also fixes Ada's "catch exception"
feature on alpha-tru64; the procedures that raise exceptions in the
Ada run-time are no-return, which is why they are affected by the
problem I mentionned.

I failed to run the dejaGNU testsuite on an alpha machine, too many
hangups.  However, I have been validated this patch against AdaCore's
internal testsuite and I had no regression. I am pretty confident that
it will not break anything.

OK to apply?
Thanks,
Jerome

        the frame address in block instead of the return address to
        locate the mdebug PDR of the frame.
