Moving annotate_stopped to the start of normal_stop seems to do the right
thing. It might be bad practice, however, to break existing functionality so a
better solution might be to create a new annotation there - aargh! - called
stopping, say, instead. However, remember that I will have reduced my initial
set of 25 annotations to 14. They would be:


    pre-prompt            prompt            post-prompt
    commands              overload-choice   query
    prompt-for-continue   source            starting
    exited                signalled         signal
    stopped

    and stopping

And, of course, from time to time, I'm trying to get GDB/MI to work directly
with Emacs.

BTW I have seen that Vim developers are starting to use level 2 annotations
for their own front end to GDB.
