This patch fixes PR symtab/15719.
The bug is that "watch -location" crashes on a certain expression.
The problem is that fetch_subexp_value is catching an exception.
For ordinary watchpoints this is ok; but for location watchpoints,
it is better for the exception to propagate.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18.
New test case included.

First, fix a technical problem with the function recurser. The test sets a
watch on local_x at a point where its value is technically undefined. The
test is written assuming that the value is not initially 2, but nothing in the
C standard guarantees that.
Second, augment the existing test for variables in recursive calls to check an
equivalent expression that explicitly sets the scope of the local variable
being tracked.
