   Sounds good to me.  We'll probably want to clean up the other bit about
   using the board_info too; or... just recognize that we got a software
   watchpoint instead of a hardware one?

   Maybe not.  It could be a bug to get a software watchpoint when we
   expect a hardware one.  The question is whether we want to keep a
   separate list of "do we expect hardware watchpoints" in the testsuite.

Hmm, I'm getting a bit frustrated that folks keep adding things to the
testsuite that assume features that are not available on most things
not i386 GNU/Linux.

Why do we allow tests like this to be checked in if we know they
produce massive fails on many systems?
