The new V3 ABI code in gnu-v3-abi.c uses a per-architecture
data-pointer, but it looks like this mechanism is broken, at least for
targets that are not yet multi-arch.
If I understand things correcly in that case startup_gdbarch is used.
However, the per-architecture data-pointer isn't allocated/initialized
for startup_gdbarch. This leads to a lot of test failures for
alpha-unknown-freebsd5.0 when using GCC 3.0.
Should arch-utils.c:initialize_current_architecture() always call
gdbarch_update_p(), even if the target is not multi-arch?

I think I've fixed this ("PATCH: relax restrictions on
per-architecture data registration"). If this problem isn't gone,
please post.
