I plan to land this relatively soon, but I wanted to note that I would
also like to backport this to gdb 11.  The Rust compiler developers are
discussing whether to land this change to the compiler, and I think it
would be helpful if a fix were in the next gdb release.  I will file a
bugzilla ticket for this, per protocol; please take a look at the patch
and let me know what you think.
