Based on the above, there's some kind of GDB bug. So your patch may still be a
good thing.
I did a build on F23 which has effectively the same version of gdb and can
reproduce the gdb segfault. It also reproduces on F24 which has gdb-7.11.1
AFAICT gdb thinks the value of "a" has been optimized out, but goes absolutely
bananas and segfaults if you try to examine a field within "a".

My gdb skills are far too rusty to take this further. I've filed an upstream
report (BZ20295 in the gdb tracker). Probably not much we can do until the GDB
side gets fixed.
I'm going to attach this to 56069 for future reference.
