I noticed that `pending breakpoint' is in singular form in document, so
I choose singular form for `pending tracepoint' as well.  I am OK with
either of them.

Right, we need "the" here.

There is a minor difference between yours and mine, IIUC.  "will not be
resolved until GDB reconnects to it" means "pending tracepoints will be
resolved immediately after GDB reconnects to it", which is not true.  We
don't know when a pending tracepoint can be resolved, but we are sure
that the pending tracepoint can not be resolved when gdb disconnects.
What do you think?
