Your GCC version is eons ahead of mine, and from a different distro on
top of that.

Not sure what you mean here.  Do you agree with this change?  If not,
why not?

Because 'struct frame_id' is otherwise not defined, and I get warnings
like this one:

     In file included from defs.h:631,
		      from gdb.c:19:
     gdbarch.h:429: warning: parameter has incomplete type
     gdbarch.h:430: warning: parameter has incomplete type

It is used in dcache.h which target-dcache.c includes:

     In file included from target-dcache.h:21,
		      from target-dcache.c:19:
     dcache.h:42: warning: parameter has incomplete type

Thanks for reviewing the patch.
