Hi Andrew, 

Thank you for your pointing out that. I will report the issue to ARM as well.
However, regarding 1 and 2: 

1. I understand this looks like a gdb bug, but my investigation pointed me to
consider that what gdb does is correct- at least partially. It tries to read
the memory to find the size of the array. If the memory is not initialised with
the correct value, the size can be huge - hence - virtual memory exhausted bug. 
I will try and check with a newer gdb. Maybe gdb should know the expression can
not be evaluated before right instructions are executed? 

2. I checked with gcc 9.2.1 20191025 and the this still happens.
