Does Keith have a version that's not checked in yet?

I did an update a moment ago and notice that set_raw_breakpoint is
still used by gdbtk-bp.c.  Here's a telling comment from this file...

    /*
     * These are routines we need from breakpoint.c.
     * at some point make these static in breakpoint.c and move GUI code there
     */

    extern struct breakpoint *set_raw_breakpoint (struct symtab_and_line sal);
    extern void set_breakpoint_count (int);
    extern int breakpoint_count;

I will adjust the set_raw_breakpoint() calls in gdbtk-bp.c to pass the
extra argument.  I'll let Keith (or someone else more familiar with
these issues than I am) decide whether a prototype ought to be added
to breakpoint.h or if the calls in gdbtk-bp.c can be eliminated (thus
allowing breakpoint.c to make set_raw_breakpoint() static again).
