Notice that before value_optimized_out was made to auto-fetch lazy
values, VAL would end up still lazy if it was lazy on entry. It's not
really a problem here if VAL is lazy, and VAL->optimized_out is 0,
because RESULT is also left lazy. IOW, this just wants to copy the
VAL->optimized_out flag to RESULT->optimized_out, nothing else.
As a side-effect of the change in value_optimized_out, the following
testcase now regresses. Consider:
type Small is range -64 .. 63;
for Small'Size use 7;
type Arr is array (1..10) of Small;
pragma Pack (Arr);
type Arr_Ptr is access Arr;
An_Arr_Ptr : Arr_Ptr := new Arr'(10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 62, 63,
-23, 42);
Trying to print one element of An_Arr_Ptr yields:
(gdb) p an_arr_ptr(3)
Cannot access memory at address 0x0
The patch adds the value_optimized_out_const function for that,
allowing us to avoid trying to fetch a value at a dummy address.
(I found this out by grepping for set_value_optimized_out and trying
to convert the uses I found to instead allocate the value with
allocate_optimized_out_value.)
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.
