It seems like a reasonable feature to me.
I can't really comment on the implementation approach.
Stan> #include "gdbcmd.h"
Stan> #include "value.h"
Stan> #include "target.h"
Stan> + extern int may_insert_tracepoints;
Stan> + extern int may_insert_fast_tracepoints;
Stan> #include "language.h"
Stan> #include "gdb_string.h"
Stan> #include "inferior.h"
The placement of these declarations seems rather odd.
I seem to keep running across this sort of thing for tracepoints.
I think a tracepoint-implementation-specific header file would be
cleaner.
