+ value was not set properly for subsequent commands. The prev_pc value
+ is used to initialize the starting line number in the ecs. With an
+ invalid value, the gdb next command ends up stopping at the position
+ represented by the next line table entry past our start position.
+ On platforms that generate one line table entry per line, this
+ is not a problem. However, on the ia64, the compiler generates
+ extraneous line table entries that do not increase the line number.
+ When we issue the gdb next command on the ia64 after an inferior call
+ or a return command, we often end up a few instructions forward, still
+ within the original line we started.
+
+ An attempt was made to have init_execution_control_state () refresh
+ the prev_pc value before calculating the line number. This approach
+ did not work because on platforms that use ptrace, the pc register
+ cannot be read unless the inferior is stopped. At that point, we
+ are not guaranteed the inferior is stopped and so the read_pc ()
+ call can fail. Setting the prev_pc value here ensures the value is
+ updated correctly when the inferior is stopped. */
