Hello guys,

This is the new version of the "catch syscall" patch. I have reviewed it
for a while, fixing things that you have proposed to me and implementing
new code. Basically, the changes are:

- Grammar errors fixed (including the "two-spaces-after-dot" rule) (as
pointed out by Michael).

- Rework of the "arch independent" part of the patch, now using the new
breakpoint_ops mechanism (as implemented by Joel).

- Tab-completion support (as suggested by Tromey).

- Storing the syscalls names using XML support, and not directly in the
source-code (as requested by Daniel Jacobowits).

- PPC, PPC64 and i386 support.

- Implementation of the GDB's datadir (Daniel asked this too).

Well, I think that's it. You guys already know what this patch is
supposed to do, but in case you have forgotten:

Hope you like it :-).
