Then an approach could be to patch the GDB unwinder to make it follow the GCC
conventions.
The correct approach would be to have gcc generate correct DWARF data.
Indeed, I have patch gdb to work around the inaccurate CIE.
You seem to be under the misapprehension that I'm talking about exception
handling in gcc. I'm not.
Well, GCC doesn't generate 2 flavor of CIEs (on SPARC) so considerations that
apply to CIEs in .debug_frame apply to CIEs in .eh_frame as well.
No, they don't. Apparently, EH frame unwinding doesn't need
correct CIE data. Debugging does.
My question was whether there was a good reason for ignoring
the offset in a RA expression.
