Redefining built-in commands.

- Subject: Redefining built-in commands.
I've run across a bug involving redefinition of built-in commands:
If the command has an alias, the alias is not redefined. Instead, the
alias is left in an inconsistent state and causes a crash when invoked.
Should gdb allow users to redefine built-in commands? If so, should the
orignial alias continue to behave like the original built-in, or should
it's behavior be modified also?
