indicate reliably how each function was defined. A function type's
TYPE_PROTOTYPED flag may be clear, even if the function was defined
in prototype style. When calling a function whose TYPE_PROTOTYPED
flag is clear, GDB consults this flag to decide what to do.

flag is clear, that can be trusted: `float' arguments should be
promoted to `double'. For some older targets, if the prototype

On a RISC architecture, a void parameterless generic dummy

need to push anything the stack and hence can leave SP and
FP. Similarly, a frameless (possibly leaf) function does
not push anything on the stack and, hence, that too can
leave FP and SP unchanged. As a consequence, a sequence of
void parameterless generic dummy frame calls to frameless
functions will create a sequence of effectively identical
frames (SP, FP and TOS and PC the same). This, not
surprisingly, results in what appears to be a stack in an
infinite loop --- when GDB tries to find a generic dummy
frame on the internal dummy frame stack, it will always
find the first one.
To avoid this problem, the code below always grows the

It does burn a few bytes of stack but that is a small price
