The patch I submitted was incomplete and needed the removal of the assertion
in value_of_register_lazy, I think.
There was a discussion about better ways of fixing this but this regression
is still present in 32 bit x86 (64 bit seemss to be OK and finds the
register values in cache somehow).
Current behaviour breaks remote debugging when using GDB in Emacs as it
currently uses "info frame". If this behaviour can't be fully resolved
before the release could a less than perfect patch be applied to prevent
the assertion error?
