Avoid crash when calling warning too early
I noticed that if you pass the name of an existing file (not a directory) as the argument to --data-directory, gdb will crash: $ ./gdb -nx --data-directory ./gdb ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/target.c:590:56: runtime error: member call on null pointer of type 'struct target_ops' This was later reported as PR gdb/23838. This happens because warning ends up calling target_supports_terminal_ours, which calls current_top_target, which returns nullptr this early. This fixes the problem by handling this case specially in target_supports_terminal_ours. I also changed target_supports_terminal_ours to return bool. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-11-08 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> PR gdb/23555: PR gdb/23838: * target.h (target_supports_terminal_ours): Return bool. * target.c (target_supports_terminal_ours): Handle case where current_top_target returns nullptr.
