Good question, only the sys command can not cause this failure. QE tried to reproduce it many times, and eventually found the following command series can easily reproduce this issue.

But actually, it doesn't get the expected address of block from the find_pc_sect_symtab(), so we have to correct it, check whether there is an address mapping to the 'block' in the symtab searching loop and the PC value is in the range. If the symtab associated with the PC value is found, and then use it. Thanks.
