How about I replace that with this,

The following enumerates the current set of reasons why @sc{gdb/mi} would
return with an @var{exec-async-output} command.

The list is suppossed to be all of the reasons why GDB would return an
exec async output command to the FE.

The first part of each item is a description of why GDB returned, the
second part is the actual reason GDB/MI will give.
(ie "reason=breakpoint-hit").
