This would be a help for us at Apple, as well.  Right now we have a 
non-standard meaning for -stack-list-locals 2, and the FSF gdb will 
have a different meaning for 2 with this patch going in.  No complaints 
or anything, but it's unpleasant.  If 1 == all-values and there is a 
new 'simple-values' (or whatever) added, we can easily add a 
'apple-values' which are the particular things our GUI wants without 
fear of conflicting.
