Description Saam Barati 2016-07-05 18:36:28 PDT
If we see that we have a sequence of tail calls that were inlined into a single machine frame, gotoNextFrame()
will step over the machine callee and go to its caller (because it made a tail call, we treat the callee
as logically not on the stack). This is a huge bug if we're unwinding from an exception where it's illegal
to skip over VM entry frames. The machine caller of this tail called machine frame might be the VM entry frame.
I think because unwindToMachineCodeBlockFrame() has sufficiently specific behavior, it should just do its own special unwinding.

Pretty sure this fixes the bug. Need to write up a changelog.

I presume the expectation here is that this test should not crash.  Can you add a comment indicating that at the top of the file?
