I was waffling on whether to make explicit errors for the impossible 
cases. I suppose there should be, one can imagine a buggy target 
mistakenly stopping and reporting back at a tracepoint.

Looking at this again, it would be easy enough just to make the two 
symbols visible, I'll do that.

I started out defining a breakpoint_ops, but it didn't seem like there 
was any good reason to fill in any of the fields. :-) Four of the fields 
are for the insert/hit/remove activity, which tracepoints don't 
participate in, and two are for printing, but tracepoints print out the 
same as regular breakpoints.
