I am sorry that what you care about is the issue that affect the mi.
But my patch is for the issue inside the function create_breakpoint.
I post the mi commands to show the issue is because it call
create_breakpoint with parse_condition_and_thread is 0 and easy to
show how it can affect the behavior of a pending breakpoint.
I think this issue also affect other functions that call
create_breakpoint with parse_condition_and_thread is 0.

So if you don't mind, please let us focus on create_breakpoint first.

And we also can do some work in:
-break-insert -c "argc > 1" "main if argc > 2"
> ^error,msg="Garbage 'if argc > 2' at end of command"

Thanks for you mind.  I will do it later.

Best,
