Hi.  I'm looking into improving support for template breakpoints
(where one file:line can map to several different pc addresses).
Daniel posted a patch in early 2005 that has the beginnings of a
solution.  Is this still the preferred approach?  Is anyone currently
working on this?  Does anyone have any further thoughts on what the
solution should/shouldn't involve?

TIA.

Here's the patch
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2005-03/msg00195.html

with further discussion here
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2006-01/msg00108.html

I couldn't find more recent discussion.  Any further pointers would
certainly be welcome.  Thanks.
