>Description:
When redefining a command that has a hook attached to it, the new command is missing the hook.  For instance, consider the following:

(gdb) define cmd
Type commands for definition of "cmd".
End with a line saying just "end".
> echo cmd\n
> end
(gdb) define hook-cmd
Type commands for definition of "hook-cmd".
End with a line saying just "end".
> echo hook-cmd\n
> end

Calling our new "cmd" causes "hook-cmd" to be called as well:

(gdb) cmd
hook-cmd
cmd

Now, if we redefine "cmd":

(gdb) define cmd
Redefine command "cmd"? (y or n) y
Type commands for definition of "cmd".
End with a line saying just "end".
> echo cmd2\n
> end

Then calling "cmd" again shows that "hook-cmd" is no longer called:

(gdb) cmd
cmd2
