Why is the location for the 'start' breakpoint the closing brace of main() ?!

The errors here seem reasonable, but they depend entirely on the garbage that
happens to be in the uninitialized variables. Different garbage will produce
worse errors.

_M_end_of_storage = 0x7ffff7e2ee60 <(anonymous

Even with the printers disabled (which is what would happen if the printers
caught all exceptions and didn't show anything) we get nonsense.
moneypunct_cache_wf, moneypunct_cache_wt, and moneypunch_cache_ct are global
variables inside libstdc++.so, but the uninitialized pointers in the
std::vector just happen to point at them.
blabla = {_M_dataplus = {<std::allocator<char>> = {<std::__new_allocator<char>>
= {<No data fields>}, <No data fields>},
_M_p = 0x7ffff7e2ede0 <(anonymous namespace)::moneypunct_cache_cf>
"x9\342\367\377\177"}, _M_string_length = 140737352232672, {
_M_local_buf =
"\300\357\342\367\377\177\000\000\002\316\314\367\377\177\000",
_M_allocated_capacity = 140737352232896}}
This is all garbage.
b = 32767
At least with an uninitialized int we just get an arbitrary int value, not
nonsense.
But none of these variables should be live yet, so gdb shouldn't even try to
show their values.
