HW breakpoint on Linux x86 native

[Michael Eager]

Hi --

I noticed that the FSF version of gdb builds without hw
break support for x86 native.  The version of gdb distributed
by RedHat includes a patch to turn this feature on, with a
comment about gdb-6.6 compatibility.

Can someone tell me why hw bp is not enabled by default
for native x86?
