Yes, I saw watchpoints also, but didn't recognize them as being useful 
in my case. From the manual:

watch expr
     Set a watchpoint for an expression. GDB will break when expr is
     written into by the program and its value changes.

Did you mean that "expr" may stand for a specific memory location?

(In my case, assuming that the memory location that I want to watch is 
0x08135400, I could simply do

     watch 0x08135400   ?)



Thanks,
