I think that watchpoint-related code in GDB improved _a lot_ since
v4.18, but I'm not sure how relevant these improvements are for the
S/390 port. The watchpoint support is certainly much better for
x86-based targets, one of which I maintain.
If you can describe in more detail what problems did you see in v4.18,
it will be possible to tell you which problems are now resolved.
