Comment 2 Tom Tromey 2010-02-25 18:03:28 UTC 
This bug happens because an objfile's psymtabs_addrmap is never
converted to a fixed addrmap.
This means an error occurred during dwarf2_build_psymtabs_hard.
This can only happen due to the code from the lazy symfile branch --
trunk doesn't exhibit this behavior because all calls to the
syms_read method are protected by a cleanup that destroys the objfile.

It would be interesting to know which objfile causes an error and
what the error is.

I'm investigating a fix.
Comment 3 Tom Tromey 2010-02-26 23:50:11 UTC 
I pushed a fix for this to archer-tromey-delayed-symfile.
