What will happen if there's some low-level failure in inserting such a
breakpoint? Won't GDB display an error message citing a breakpoint
that "doesn't exist", as far as the user is concerned?

"nor" should be used here.
Also, consider using "listed" or "shown" instead of "enumerated". I
think the former 2 alternatives make the text easier to read without
losing anything.

I believe we use @code markup for commands, not @samp.
