Given that I cannot create a checkpoint and keep it in place, I often create
multiple checkpoints so that if I need to go back I still have lots of choices.
This requires me to type "checkpoint" many times. The program that I debug is
large (up to 128GB) so creating these can take some time, though not an enormous
amount. Still, it would be nice if I could type:

checkpoint 10

... and 10 checkpoints are created, like other GDB commands.
