with Brian's kernel support for i386 debug registers. This makes
watchpoints actually usable for real-life problems. Note: you can
only set watchpoints on 1-, 2- or 4-byte locations, gdb automatically
falls back to [sloooow] software watchpoints when attempting to use
them on variables which don't fit into this category. To circumvent
this, one can use the following hack:
watch *(int *)0x<some address>
David O'Brien is IMHO considering to get this fully integrated into the
official GDB, but as long as we've got the i386/* files sitting around
in our private FreeBSD tree here, the feature can now be tested more
extensively, so i'm committing this for the time being.
This work has been done in order to debug a tix toolkit problem, thus
it has been sponsored by teh Deutsche Post AG.

When we're more convinced that it'll work, we might try this
to avoid a shell invocation:

/boot/device.hints in the bin dist during releases so that current snapshots
have a chance of booting up ok after installing. The real fix for this
problem is to rewrite userconfig in Forth, stick it in the loader, axe
userconfig from the kernel, and extract the hints from the booted kernel in
sysinstall similar to the way we generate /boot/kernel.conf right now. For
now, however, this will have to do.

Keep track of all existing pmaps independent of existing processes.
This allows for a process to temporarily connect to a different address
space without the risk of missing an update of the original address space if
the kernel grows.
pmap_pinit2() is no longer needed on the i386 platform but is left as a
stub until the alpha pmap code is updated.

Problem in this code originally spotted by
Jun Kuriyama <kuriyama@FreeBSD.org>
growstackblock() sometimes relocates a stack_block considered empty
without properly relocating stack marks referencing that block.
The first call to popstackmark() with the unrelocated stack mark
as argument then causes sh to abort.
Relocating the relevant stack marks seems to solve this problem.
The patch changes the semantics of popstackmark() somewhat. It can
only be called once after a call to setstackmark(), thus cmdloop() in
main.c needs an extra call to setstackmark().
