--- Comment #4 from Dave Malcolm <dmalcolm at redhat dot com> ---
Renaming.  It *is* possible to set a breakpoint on a function in an anonymous
namespace, it's just way too tricky to do it right now, given that
(A) you have to type the full qualified name, and
(B) tab-completion is broken

and these make it sufficiently difficult that it's effectively not possible for
a non-expert user.

So please can (A) and (B) be fixed.
