Wouldn't it better to make these create_foo functions return a
gdbpy_reference ?  Then at the call site you'd use std::move instead
of reset (when assigning to an existing lval):

      stop_event_obj = std::move (create_breakpoint_event_object (list.get (),
							          first_bp));

The advantage of following such a principle is that it makes it impossible
for callers to forget to manage the result with a gdbpy_reference, since
assigning the return to a raw PyObject * won't compile.

Thanks,
Pedro Alves
