GDB mainline segfaults on 32bit threaded program.

[Manoj Iyer <manjo@austin.ibm.com>]

GDB (mainline cvs) built 32bit on ppc64 machine running sles9 dumps core
on a multithreaded program. gdb segfaults only when I set a breakpoint on
the thread fucntion and decide to stop there.

1. cc -o tbug_dwarf2 tbug.c -g dwarf-2 -lpthread
2. gdb tbug_dwarf2
3. br main
4. br tf
5. run <---- segfalts here
6. c


Attached is a testcase that can re-create this problem "tbug.c"

I used GDB to debug this core produced, here is the backtrace...

The macro FILENAME_CMP in symtab.c:185 uses the strcmp to do the
comparison, symtab_to_fullname() function returns NULL for s->fullname and
this causes strcmp to segfault. Although syntab.c:185 checks if full_path
!= NULL but it does not check if  const char *fp = symtab_to_fullname (s);
is not equal to NULL. I dont know what causes symtab_to_fullname() to
return NULL.
