We're going to have to wait a little to evaluate a little more some
crashes in MI that Mark reported. So we also have time to look at this.

I'm not sure what the problem with the backport might be. I tried
cherry-picking the patch, and the only conflicts were in the ChangeLog
files (we are going to have to get rid of those, one of these days).
So the patch applies cleanly for me.

The problem that I see, then, is evaluating the risk of putting
this change in the branch. It's pretty large, and could potentially
contaminate all breakpoints, but should be limited to watchpoints.
It's been in HEAD since Aug, so 4 months, now. Do we know of any
problem that was introduced by this patch?  If not, then I'm OK with
putting it in 7.2.1, fixing any problem with a 7.2.2 if necessary.
