On openSUSE Leap 42.3, with system compiler gcc 4.8.5 I run into:
...
(gdb) print u_one_two_three^M
src/gdb/gdbtypes.h:1050: internal-error: field: \
Assertion `idx >= 0 && idx < num_fields ()' failed.^M
...
We run into trouble while doing this in
ada_is_unconstrained_packed_array_type:
...
1953 return TYPE_FIELD_BITSIZE (type, 0) > 0;
...
which tries to get field 0 from a type without fields:
...
(gdb) p type->num_fields ()
$6 = 0
...
which is the case because the type is a typedef:
...
(gdb) p type->code ()
$7 = TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF
...
Fix this by using the type referenced by the typedef instead.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

/* The structure's first field is a pointer to an array, so this
fetches the array type. */
type = TYPE_TARGET_TYPE (type->field (0).type ());
+ if (type->code () == TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF)
+ type = ada_typedef_target_type (type);
/* Now we can see if the array elements are packed. */
return TYPE_FIELD_BITSIZE (type, 0) > 0;
