You're right that there is a missing terminator (there's a patch on
libc-alpha for that), but I would not expect it to cause trouble.  It's
not needed with sorted tables in .eh_frame_hdr, which IIRC all ports
ought to have (and it's not a new problem, either).  Very curious.

Could you check for me why this failed:

  if (hdr->fde_count_enc != DW_EH_PE_omit
      && hdr->table_enc == (DW_EH_PE_datarel | DW_EH_PE_sdata4))

Do you have no search table, or is the encoding wrong?
