Re: [PATCH 04/10] Enhance extended ptrace event setup


Hi
It turns out that this patch doesn't work well for remote exec
catchpoints.  In the event anybody is reviewing this patch series,
please don't spend any time on patch 4 until I post an updated version.
 The rest of the patch series will remain relatively unchanged as a
result of this.

Sorry about that.

There is a new function that allows the caller to specify both "base" options and "additional" options, where base options are set at initialization, and additional options can be added later at the caller's discretion using another new function.  The additional options can be used to enable options only available in extended-mode.
