Bah, -O0 vs -O2.  I've pushed the fix below.

-------
Subject: [PATCH] Fix build breakage due to event loop simplification

commit 70b66289 (Simplify event-loop core, remove two-step event
processing) causes a build failure when compiling GDB with gcc/-O2:

 gdb/event-loop.c: In function ‘gdb_do_one_event’:
 gdb/event-loop.c:296:10: error: ‘res’ may be used uninitialized in this function
 [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
	if (res > 0)
	   ^

GCC isn't realizing that event_source_head can never be > 2 and that
therefore 'res' is always initialized in all possible paths.  Adding a
default case that internal_error's makes GCC realize that.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.
