+ You might think that calls to this function can simply be replaced by a

Unfortunately, it isn't that easy.
The only real exceptions occur at the edge (in the CLI code) where
user commands need to pick up the selected frame before proceeding.
+ There are also some functions called with a NULL frame meaning either "the
+ program is not running" or "use the selected frame".
+
This is important. GDB is trying to stamp out the hack:
- saved_frame = deprecated_selected_frame;
- deprecated_selected_frame = ...;
+ saved_frame = deprecated_safe_get_selected_frame ();
+ select_frame (...);

- This function is "a step sideways" for uses of deprecated_selected_frame.
- They should be fixed as above, but meanwhile, we needed a solution for
- cases where functions are called with a NULL frame meaning either "the
- program is not running" or "use the selected frame". Lazy building of
- deprecated_selected_frame confuses the situation, because now
- deprecated_selected_frame can be NULL even when the inferior is running.
+ Take care!
This function calls get_selected_frame if the inferior should have a
frame, or returns NULL otherwise. */
