#
# In a nutshell: the function 'beta' ends with a call to 'abort', which
# is a noreturn function.  So the last instruction of 'beta' is a call
# to 'abort'.  When gdb looks for information about the caller of
# 'beta', it looks at the instruction after the call to 'abort' -- which
# is the first instruction of 'alpha'!  So gdb uses the wrong frame
# information.  It thinks that the test program is in 'alpha' and that
# the prologue "push %ebp / mov %esp,%ebp" has not been executed yet,
# and grabs the wrong values.
#
# By the nature of the bug, it could pass if the C compiler is not smart
# enough to implement 'abort' as a noreturn function.  This is okay.
# The real point is that users often put breakpoints on noreturn
# functions such as 'abort' or some kind of exitting function, and those
# breakpoints should work.
