2012-03-07  Luis Machado  <lgustavo@codesourcery.com>

	* ax-gdb.c (gen_fetch): Fail gracefully and use error instead
	of internal error for unknown/unsupported types.

	Revert:

	2012-03-03  Jan Kratochvil  <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com>

	Implement testsuite workaround for PR breakpoints/13781.
	* gdb.cp/mb-templates.exp: New loop with variable $workaround.
	(set breakpoint condition-evaluation host): New conditional command.
