Subject: [Bug breakpoints/9723] gdb breakpoints silently fail on PIE binaries

So I don't consider myself a beginning computer user and this still feels like a
bug to me.  Forget the crash in vendor-specific code; with vanilla gdb I set a
breakpoint, it appears to succeed, and then, well, it just doesn't work.

Until such time as PIE support is merged, perhaps gdb could print some sort of
informational message or fail the breakpoint or give some indication that the
expected behavior is that the breakpoint will not be triggered.  It would at
least cut down on the number of duplicate bugs filed.
