Just for the record: I've noticed this report and will take into account
the discussion in order to decide what to do for 7.1.
I personally don't have an opinion, right now - I don't know what to think.
On the one hand, I guess we should be able to print the list of register
names even if the program hasn't started yet. On the other hand, until
we do have an executable file, we don't know what the architecture is.
And even so, doesn't the architecture actually depend on the frame (the
case of the powerpc+spu)?
Given that this was already a problem with 7.0, I propose we pass for
7.1 and consider either 7.1.1 and/or 7.2.
