I have to admit I do not believe there would ever be seen any real world
functionality difference between the first 14-liner and this 126-liner.
But I agree this second/checked-in patch is a more complete/safe solution for
the problem. So if there have popped up concerns about the first patch and
GDB maintainers agree to accept the larger codebase of the more complete/safe
solution the technical cost of coding such implementation I find more
appropriate than arguing about it.

Fixed.

Checked-in:

Now the question remains what to use for gdb_7_1-branch as it fixes
a regression (by me) from gdb-7.0 as described in the first mail:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-03/msg00799.html
I would even suggest the first simple variant of the patch from that mail.
Thanks,
Jan
