operate-and-get-next is off by one

[Daniel Jacobowitz]

It appears to be "operate-and-get-command-after-next" right now.  It's
skipping every other command...

What system?  How are you invoking gdb?

I updated and rebuilt gdb from scratch on x86 Linux (RHL 6.2).
operate-and-get-next seems to work fine in my simple test:

    p 1
    p 2
    p 3
    C-n C-n C-n
    C-o C-o

If you can tell me a simple way to reproduce the problem I will look
at it.

You mean C-p, I assume...

I can no longer reproduce the exact sequence, unfortunately.  It was
an interaction with 'commands'; I was trying to reset the commands of
a breakpoint.  Now when I try it simply skips all the '>' prompts, and
leaves the command after 'commands' at the (gdb) prompt after I type
'end'.  It would be very convenient if C-o worked at the > prompt also,
since everything you type there makes it into the command history.

If I reproduce the original problem again I'll let you know.

Yeah, sorry about that.

I agree.  I'm a bit surprised it doesn't, but I'm also a bit
unsurprised since the command-line handling code is really quite
baroque.  I'll put this on my to-do list, but I can't promise to look
at it in a timely way :-(.
