[Bug breakpoints/18658] New: break command should have an "inferior" modifier


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18658

            Bug ID: 18658
           Summary: break command should have an "inferior" modifier
           Product: gdb
           Version: 7.9
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: breakpoints
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: pkoning at equallogic dot com
  Target Milestone: ---
             Flags: security-

"break" takes a "thread" modifier, but it doesn't seem to have an "inferior"
modifier.  This would be particularly useful when debugging inferiors that have
different executables; it's a bit baffling to say "break foo" and have it set
breakpoints in two unrelated places that happen to have used the same function
name.
