It is obvious why that happens, dummy_frame_pop() will call compile objfile
cleanup which will free that objfile and NAME then becomes a stale pointer.

> Is there any reason we release OBJFILE in the dummy frame dtor?  Why
> don't we register a cleanup to release in OBJFILE in compile_object_run?
> together with releasing compile_module?  'struct compile_module' has a
> field objfile, which should be released together with
> 'struct compile_module' instead of dummy_frame.

(gdb) break puts
Breakpoint 2 at 0x3830c6fd30: file ioputs.c, line 34.
(gdb) compile code puts("hello")
Breakpoint 2, _IO_puts (str=0x7ffff7ff8000 "hello") at ioputs.c:34
34      {
The program being debugged stopped while in a function called from GDB.
Evaluation of the expression containing the function
(_gdb_expr) will be abandoned.
When the function is done executing, GDB will silently stop.
(gdb) bt
(gdb) _

Now compile_object_run() called from line
	(gdb) compile code puts("hello")
has finished for a long time.  But we still need to have that injected code
OBJFILE valid when GDB is executing it.  Therefore OBJFILE is freed only from
destructor of the frame #1.

At the patched line of call_function_by_hand_dummy() the dummy frame
destructor has not yet been run but it will be run before the fetched NAME
will get used.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
