the patch does not apply to HEAD, with hand-application and
CPPFLAGS="-I/tmp/libunwind-root-ia64/include" CFLAGS="-g $CPPFLAGS" LDFLAGS=-L/tmp/libunwind-root-ia64/lib ./configure --enable-targets=all

getting:

ia64-tdep.c: In function ‘ia64_pseudo_register_read’:
ia64-tdep.c:946:7: error: implicit declaration of function ‘libunwind_is_initialized’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
ia64-tdep.c:947:4: error: implicit declaration of function ‘libunwind_get_reg_special’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
config.h:
/* #undef HAVE_LIBUNWIND */
#define HAVE_LIBUNWIND_IA64_H 1

If the non-ia64 libunwind support is therefore really removed the dead code in
libunwind-frame.c should be also removed with some comments making it ia64
specific.

I believe the original goal was to make the libunwind support in GDB
arch-independent but it has been done only half-way and I agree it is OK to
make libunwind support really ia64-only.
	RFA: libunwind basic support
	http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2003-10/msg00504.html


+  AC_CHECK_HEADERS(libunwind-ia64.h)
+  if x"$ac_cv_header_libunwind_ia64_h" = xyes; then

This should use threfore AC_CHECK_HEADER.

Jan
