46    that will be called to insert watchpoints and hardware breakpoints
47    into the inferior, remove them, and check their status.  These
48    functions are:

51 				  register to a given value for all LWPs

54 				  register for all LWPs
55

57 				  one debug register for all LWPs
58

60 				  status (DR6) register for current LWP
61 
62       unset_status             -- unset the specified bits of the debug
63 				  status (DR6) register for all LWPs
