bug#4282: 23.1.50; gdb-mi.el: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil) when using watchpoints

Hi,

I'm having trouble with gdb-mi and watchpoints (i.e. "watch" command at
the gdb prompt).

Steps to reproduce (I'm posting from an Emacs instance where I just
reproduced this):

$ cat main.c 
int main () {
	int i;
	i++;
	i++;
}
$ gcc main.c -g
$ emacs -Q main.c

Then, within Emacs:

* Launch M-x gdb RET once.
* Quit this first *gud* buffer (C-x k)
* Launch M-x gdb RET once more (yes, that's strange, but it doesn't
  crash in the first instance, only in the next one!)
* M-x toggle-debug-on-error RET
* In the *gud-a.out* buffer:

(gdb) b main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x8048335: file main.c, line 3.
(gdb) r
Starting program: /tmp/a.out 

Breakpoint 1, main () at main.c:3
3		i++;
(gdb) watch i
Hardware watchpoint 2: i

Then, I get this backtrace (and it keeps giving the same error for
anything done in this *gud* buffer afterwards):
