"maint print arch" causing gdb crash


Hi,

'gdbarch_dump' is in some cases passing a NULL pointer to 'sprintf' when printing 'gdbarch->stap_gdb_register_suffix' etc. Printing NULL pointers like this is undefined behavior. With glibc passing a NULL pointer just prints "(null)". With the MSVC libc, however, GDB crashes.

Attached patch fixes this issue using the similar approach discussed in following scenario:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-10/msg00662.html


There are some newly added variables due to which "maint print arch" command was causing gdb crash on whindows host. This patch takes care of them.

OK?

Thanks,
-Ali
