This is kind of odd...

Frame 8, catch_errors, should have caught any the call to frame 0. 
However, the question is, why is gdb_loc calling decode_line_1 with no 
arguments?

My memory is a little fuzzy about this, but I fired up insight on my 
linux box under gdb and set a breakpoint in gdb_loc. As I recall, this 
happens at start-up to find "main", but for some reason, it appears that 
the argument which should contain "main" instead contains an empty string.

Can you set a breakpoint in gdb_loc, run insight, and tell me what objc 
is? It should be 2, and objv[0]->bytes should be "gdb_loc" and 
objv[1]->bytes should be "main".

Is this not the case?
