Thanks.  Is it possible to modify the wording so that it doesn't use
passive tense so much?  I'm told by native English speakers that
passive is BAD...

For example, this:

> If a breakpoint location cannot be found, you are queried to see if
> you wish to make the breakpoint pending on a future shared-library
> load.

could be rephrased like this:

  If a breakpoint location cannot be found, GDB queries you if you
  wish to make the breakpoint pending on ...

Etc., you get the point.

TIA
