Check the target vector [target.h] many of of the watchpoint operations 
are implemented there - this is because watchpoints often have target 
dependant semantics.

In terms of adding target/architecture methods.  Its probably useful to 
go over old discussions.  The bug database (of all places) has entries, 
for instance:
http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view%20audit-trail&database=gdb&pr=967
which leads to the thread:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2002-09/msg00739.html
(there are a number of threads from that time period).
