Subject: PATCH m68knommu clear frame-pointer in start_thread
Date: Wed, 15 Mar 2006 17:47:07 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200603151647.k2FGl7Y04736@mail.macqel.be> (raw)

When trying to print the calltrace of a user process on m68knommu targets
gdb follows the frame-pointer en falls on unreachable adresses, because
the frame pointer is not properly initialised by start_thread. This patch
initialises the frame pointer to NULL in start_thread.

Signed-off-by: Philippe De Muyter <phdm@macqel.be>

the only change is the initialisztion of a6, the rest is spacing fixes
