While we are at it -- it may be worth thinking about propagating thread
information associated with breakpoints and watchpoints down to the
respective backends. Some processors (like the MIPS 34K multi-threaded
core) supports thread qualification for execution and data breakpoints in
hardware and debug stubs would be eager to make use of that for
performance gain. Has it been considered before?
