[lldb-dev] [PATCH] Fix NULL unwinder dereference in StackFrameList

[Jason Molenda]

For what it's worth, the unwinder is picked in Thread::GetStackFrameStatus() - we have a "last resort" unwinder for Apple triples that tries to walk the stack by following a frame chain for i386 or x86_64.  Might be good to fall back to that even if the triple isn't -apple-.

(wouldn't have helped in this case where you didn't even have an architecture, let alone an OS, defined, but fwiw.)
