I find it too fragile relying only on the current callers of DWARF_EXPR_EVAL.
There may be a hard to catch bug after someone wraps some part of the code by
CATCH_EXCEPTIONS and expects DWARF_EXPR_CONTEXT passed into the
CATCH_EXCEPTIONS block will stay uncorrupted afterwards.

Attached a discouraged simplified patch not using the exception system.

	* Makefile.in: Update dependencies.
	* dwarf2expr.c: New include "gdb_assert.h".
	(new_dwarf_expr_context): Initialize MAX_RECURSION_DEPTH.
	(dwarf_expr_eval): Sanity check the RECURSION_DEPTH count.
	(execute_stack_op): Error out on too large RECURSION_DEPTH.
	Increase/decrease RECURSION_DEPTH around the function.
