Yeah, looks pretty broken there.  :-(

I'd say NullPointerExceptions aren't handled properly on
sparc-unknown-linux-gnu
(http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2004-03/msg00410.html).  This
is worse than simply a broken (or missing, I haven't looked)
MD_FALLBACK_FRAME_STATE_FOR.

In particular, I really don't like the PR218 failure.  This indicates
that something pretty basic is wrong.

Andrew.
