I am able to run it through your example. However, I did build the
executable using gcc, not cc. That's probably where the difference is.

The problem here is that both file_symtab and sym_symtab are NULL.
Looking at the frame just above it:

Apparently, lookup_symbol found a symbol for "main", but did not
return the associated symtab.

You'll probably need to debug GDB to find out why
lookup_symbol_in_language set the symtab to NULL...
