Putting verbs at the end of the sentence produces awkward and hard to understand sentences (unless you talk in German or Japanese ;-). Using passive tense makes it even more so. I would reword like this: In addition, @value{GDBN} supports @dfn{pending tracepoints}--- tracepoints whose address is not yet resolved. (This is similar to pending breakpoints.)
