True. It clearly shows that it was originally written for a very special
platform (Sparclet, I think) and was designed accordingly. Certain
aspects of how breakpoint.c handles watchpoints cannot be understood
without having this in mind. For example, why on Earth are
software watchpoints and hardware watchpoints handled differently from
read and access watchpoints? why are hardware breakpoints treated like
normal breakpoints instead of being akin to watchpoints? etc., etc.
