[Bug debug/31920] New: Bad location information for Java local variable

[drow at gcc dot gnu dot org]

Here's a snippet from the HEAD version of gdb.java/jprint.java in the GDB
testsuite:

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    jprint x = new jprint ();
    x.dothat (44);
    print (k, 33);
  }

GCC's debug info reports that x is a pointer in %rax when compiled with -g -O0.
 It reports that that's true throughout the function.  Unfortunately it isn't
true; it's in %rax before the call to x.dothat(44) but afterwards %rax is
garbage.
