Do not unwind past a zero PC frame.
This improves GDB usability when debugging code compiled with optimization. Upstream GDB revision f0031b6d3ae9b164b3747986ab898190bd4dcf8c (prior to GDB's switch to GPLv3), with frame_debug_got_null_frame expanded inline. | 2004-12-12 Andrew Cagney <cagney@gnu.org> | | * frame.c (get_prev_frame): When unwinding normal frames, check | that the PC isn't zero.
