Xavier Roirand d0fe47010f Allow enabling/disabling breakpoint location ranges
When a breakpoint has multiple locations, like e.g.:

 Num  Type       Disp Enb  Address    What
 1    breakpoint keep y    <MULTIPLE>
 1.1                  y    0x080486a2 in void foo<int>()...
 1.2                  y    0x080486ca in void foo<double>()...
 [....]
 1.5                  y    0x080487fa in void foo<long>()...

it's possible to enable/disable the individual locations using the
'<breakpoint_number>.<location_number>' syntax, like e.g.:

 (gdb) disable 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5

That's inconvenient when you have a long list of locations to disable,
however.

This patch adds shorthand for the above, by making it possible to
specify a range of locations with the following syntax (similar to
thread id ranges):

 <breakpoint_number>.<first_location_number>-<last_location_number>

For example, the command above can now be simplified to:

 (gdb) disable 1.2-5

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
