Hi Nick,

Out of all of the annotations that you are removing here, CGDB only
depends on annotate_breakpoints_headers, annotate_field,
annotate_breakpoints_table, annotate_record and
annotate_breakpoints_table_end.

I'll have to look deeper to verify this, but if this is true, it would
really simplify my life if we could leave those in. That at least would
allow CGDB to work with the next release of GDB while I work on
GDB/MI and getting CGDB to integrate with it.

Thanks,
Bob Rossi
