	at a time.  That would be really hairy and still not fast enough.
	Do suggest debug registers and page table diddling.

-Speed up watchpoints by not single-stepping them, but do something
-faster like single-line execution.  Speed them up tremendously on
-machines that have watchpoint registers.
+Speed up watchpoints by using debug registers, page table diddling (on

+something simpler), etc.
 
 Update gdbint.texinfo to include doc on the directory structure and 
 the various tricks of building gdb.
