Seconded! Does this also fix the bug where if you display a variable,
and it is temporarily at a bad address, the display is disabled? Or
is that still the case? That always drives me nuts - yes, I know foo
is NULL, but I want GDB to go back to displaying *foo when it comes
back. I don't know what the "infinite recursion" in question is.
