I don't recall them. Start with: [rfc;rfa:breakpoint] Pass full breakpoint/watchpoint count to target http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view%20audit-trail&database=gdb&pr=967 which should give you enough to find the discussion. My "memory" of the thread is that stalled when it became apparent that a two level watchpoint mechanism that created a canonical(1) list of physical watch regions was going to be needed. Andrew (1) Canonical, now there's an interesting word.
