Here is a revised patch with all requested changed.

I changed the modifier to /m.  I know it was only a suggestion
Michael, but it grew on me.

Ok to check in?

 *** Changes since GDB 6.8
 
+* The "disassemble" command now supports an optional /m modifier to print mixed
+  source+assembly.
+
 * Watchpoints can now be set on unreadable memory locations, e.g. addresses
 which will be allocated using malloc later in program execution.
