I'm not sure what, if anything needs to be done on the RedBoot side.
I believe that GDB has all the information and access to the registers
that it needs to support hw watchpoints/breakpoints. There may actually
be some activity on this, but you'll need to check with the GDB folks
about the current status of such support.
