This is fine with me, but do I understand correctly that the PPC
doesn't have a way to return the data address that triggered the
watchpoint? If so, how do things work on a PPC when GDB calls
target_stopped_data_address? What am I missing?

Also, please add an entry in NEWS about this.

Last, but not least, thanks for working on this!
