Subject: [patch] stack.c, check return value of lookup_symbol
Date: Thu, 05 Jul 2007 23:06:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <24899.12.7.175.2.1183676791.squirrel@webmail.sonic.net> (raw)

Since it's known that lookup_symbol can return NULL, my first impulse
was to call gdb_assert.  That still might be the right thing to do,
since it indicates some sort of internal fault -- but it seems to
me that it isn't necessarily fatal, and simply doing nothing is an option...
