According to documentation of the Python API of gdb, a frame has a function method. I read gdb 7.0, 7.0.1 and 7.1 (downloaded from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdb): there is not "function" method, but a "name" method. On my Debiand Sid (gdb 7.1), gdb has the name method, but not the function method. Can we use frame.name() instead of frame.function().name on any OS and all gdb 7.x versions?
