I am not very familiar with tracepoints, but I think I see what
is happening (disconnecting GDB from the target?). It seems to me
that, indeed, tracepoints need to download and upload the condition
language as well. In particular:

I do not think so; At the time when the user declares the tracepoint
condition, I am assuming that we check the language mode, and that if
it is not auto, then we use the current_language as the condition
language, regardless of the language of the source. As a result,
the condition language cannot be determined from the tracepoint address.
