Most of other *_skip_prologue functions pretend, that prolog is an 
always-the-same sequence of instructions, what is not the case on 
x86-64. I can't see an approach other than the one I have chosen.
Of course I can use other structures and maybe some macros, but the 
concept will remain. Or is there another way?

Why should I preferably use find_pc_line()? It gives me the same symtab 
as find_pc_symtab() does... Anyway I have rewritten the code to use it.

Sorry, I'm not yet used to follow GNU coding style. Hopefully now it is 
better ;-)
