Yes, the same thing also is happening on Darwin; some discussion here:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-08/msg00201.html

The thing is: when the assumptions are violated, (AFAICT) find_pc_section
couldn't have worked correctly before my patch, except by accident.

What is the simplest way to test overlays?
