And why is that a problem? I'm sorry, but I couldn't figure out from
your description why removing a watch for an expression for which
insertion didn't happen causes trouble. IIRC, it is supposed to
silently fail, and its only effect should be to cause GDB to be happy
that the watchpoint was completely removed. What am I missing?
