+# Test printing roots that refer to NULL pointers.
+
+# Since mozilla.prettyprinters.Pointer declines to create pretty-printers
+# for null pointers, GDB built-in printing code ends up handling them. But
+# as of 2012-11, GDB suppresses printing pointers in replacement values:
+# see: http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2012-11/msg00055.html
+#
+# Thus, if the pretty-printer for JS::Rooted simply returns the referent as
+# a replacement value (which seems reasonable enough, if you want the
+# pretty-printer to be completely transparent), and the referent is a null
+# pointer, it prints as nothing at all.
+#
+# This test ensures that the JS::Rooted pretty-printer doesn't make that
+# mistake.
