base/SOURCES/gdb-rhbz1013453-value-struct-elt-memory-leak.patch

https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-07/msg00469.html

Hi.
This patch adds the missing calls to check_typedef
and adds a testcase to show the issue.

The PR is not closeable yet, but the remaining issues are more cleanups
than actual bug fixes.

Regression tested on amd64-linux.

I will check this in in a few days if there are no objections.

[The multiple calls to check_typedef (value_type (*argp)) are
bothersome, but the code is simpler this way, and I expect
resolving the rest of the issues in 15695 to potentially change this
code significantly.]
