It is obvious why that happens, dummy_frame_pop() will call compile objfile
cleanup which will free that objfile and NAME then becomes a stale pointer.
> Is there any reason we release OBJFILE in the dummy frame dtor? Why
> don't we register a cleanup to release in OBJFILE in compile_object_run?
> together with releasing compile_module? 'struct compile_module' has a
> field objfile, which should be released together with
> 'struct compile_module' instead of dummy_frame.

The program being debugged stopped while in a function called from GDB.
Evaluation of the expression containing the function
(_gdb_expr) will be abandoned.
When the function is done executing, GDB will silently stop.

Now compile_object_run() called from line
(gdb) compile code puts("hello")
has finished for a long time. But we still need to have that injected code
OBJFILE valid when GDB is executing it. Therefore OBJFILE is freed only from
destructor of the frame #1.
At the patched line of call_function_by_hand_dummy() the dummy frame
destructor has not yet been run but it will be run before the fetched NAME
will get used.
