Probably the following prints the "=> ".
Out of curiosity, what did you do before the gdb disas?

 
I didn't run any crash commands or gdb commands before the gdb disass, the current command(gdb disassemble 0xffffffffa2317add) is the first one.

The crash-7(gdb-7.6) doesn't have this issue. The "=>" should be the current PC indicator.

The pc_prefix() was added by following commit:
2b28d209243f ("2009-10-21  Paul Pluzhnikov  <ppluzhnikov@xxxxxxxxxx>")

modified by this one:
ce406537179a (" * infcmd.c (post_create_inferior): Ignore NOT_AVAILABLE_ERROR   errors when reading the `stop_pc'.      * printcmd.c (pc_prefix): Use get_frame_pc_if_available instead of        get_frame_pc.")

Thanks.

/* Return a prefix for instruction address:
    "=> " for current instruction, else "   ".  */

const char *
pc_prefix (CORE_ADDR addr)
{
   if (has_stack_frames ())
     {
       struct frame_info *frame;
       CORE_ADDR pc;

       frame = get_selected_frame (NULL);
       if (get_frame_pc_if_available (frame, &pc) && pc == addr)
         return "=> ";
     }
   return "   ";
}

Anyway, the patch looks good to me.
