Patch is good to me.

GCC trunk can capture it by a warning like this,

../../binutils-gdb/gdb/location.c: In function ‘event_location*
string_to_explicit_location(const char**, const language_defn*, int)’:
../../binutils-gdb/gdb/location.c:527:19: error: ISO C++ forbids
comparison between pointer and integer [-fpermissive]
       || *argp == '\0'
                   ^~~~
make: *** [location.o] Error 1
