It appears that gcc may put some code in ".text.unlikely" or
".text.hot" sections.  Right now those aren't accounted for in unwind
tables.  Add them.

I found some docs about this at:
  http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.6.2/gcc.pdf

Without this, if you have slub_debug turned on, you can get messages
that look like this:
  unwind: Index not found 7f008c50
