            Bug ID: 32079
           Summary: Can't insert internal breakpoints after inferior
                    dlclose some share objects
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: breakpoints
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: blarsen at redhat dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

As I'm trying to debug what I think is an unrelated issue in
gdb.base/dlmopen.exp, I noticed that stepping through the program (using next)
GDB gets into a state where it tries to insert some internal breakpoints, and
so refuses to let me move forward, but I can't see the number of the breakpoint
to delete it.

Here's a simplified session:

```

```

So, this happened after the last dlmopen-lib.1.so was dlclose'd, we are no
longer able to step.

If I set a breakpoint after the loop and continue over it, the issue doesn't
occur, so it seems to be related to internal "next" breakpoints in some way
