If we are adding linespec syntax, it seems to me we should just
recognize the return type as well: 'break int templatefunction()'.  This
is immediately recognizable to the C++ programmer and preserve the "nm
-C cut-and-paste" property as well.  Only if this cannot be done for
some reason do I think we should consider gdb-specific alternatives.
