FWIW, in order to test this theory, I did:
...
diff --git a/gdb/infrun.c b/gdb/infrun.c
index 2e53d2a6c30..ec2697dd437 100644
--- a/gdb/infrun.c

  	  infrun_debug_printf ("stepped to a different frame, but "
  			       "it's not the start of a statement");
+	  refresh_step_info = false;
  	}
      }

...
and ran into a failure here:
...

breakpoint: bar

I haven't looked into exactly why this is failing, but the apparently 
the refresh_step_info does have a function here.

Thanks,
