[Bug gdb/11371] New: Request: add support for conditional watchpoint

["danny dot geist at gmail dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

Hi there,
I needed a conditional watchpoint. I looked at the code and saw that although
its undocumented, there is already infrastructure for it.

I tried it out and hit a seg violation. I debugged the problem and added a very
minor fix (10 lines) and then it WORKED!. Below is the diff of file breakpoint.c
(from gdb 7.0) that fixes the problem. I would like to get it installed in the
code somehow.
Thanks,
Danny
