Random SIGILL / SIGSEGV on ARMv7 while debugging ?

Hi,
   I've been running the testsuite on a Odroid XU4 and I get random 
SIGILL / SIGSEGV signals while running the testsuite.

  It happens around 30% of the time on the same command.

  I can get the following log for example :

(gdb) spawn ../gdbserver/gdbserver --once :2346 
/home/hexa/src/binutils-gdb/build-arm/gdb/testsuite/gdb.trace/change-loc

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.trace/change-loc.exp: Can't run to main to check for 
trace support

I'm able to reproduce this also with GDB itself using a small program 
like so :

int
func1 (int b)
{
   return b + 2;
}

int
main ()
{
   int c = 1;
   while (c)
     c = func1 (2);
   return c;
}

and running gdb with that script :

set pagination off
start
while 1
   step
   end


I've tested this on kernel 3.10 and 4.2, same results, 4.2 seems a bit 
worse...

I've also tested on a Raspberry Pi2 with kernel 3.18.0 and I can't 
reproduce it.

Has anybody else seen this ?
