623 Zero-length types can legitimately arise from declarations
624 like 'struct {}' (a GCC extension, not valid ISO C). GDB may
625 also create them when it finds bogus debugging information;
626 for example, in GCC 2.95.4 and binutils 2.11.93.0.2, the
627 STABS BINCL->EXCL compression process can create bad type
628 numbers. GDB reads these as TYPE_CODE_UNDEF types, with zero
629 length. (That bug is actually the only known way to get a
630 zero-length value allocated to a register --- which is what
631 it takes to make it here.)
