When running gdb4.7 target=sparc, host=sparc
doing
	break foo
	run
	i r pc
gives a pc that's valid for foo, the top frame of the stack.

if I then do
	up
	i r pc
I still get the SAME pc, namely for foo, rather than
for foo's caller.  In fact, every frame reports that its
pc is the same as for foo, which is clearly wrong.

fp and l0 (the others that I tried) do seem to change
on a per frame basis.
