automagically. Certainly on HP-UX that's true.
Jim Blandy <jimb@redhat.com>: Actually, zero is a perfectly
valid code address on some platforms (like the mn10200 and
mn10300 simulators). We shouldn't assign any special
interpretation to a breakpoint with a zero address. And in
fact, GDB doesn't --- I can't see what that comment above is
talking about. As far as I can tell, setting the address of a
bp_catch_exec/bp_catch_vfork/bp_catch_fork breakpoint to zero
is meaningless, since those are implemented with HP-UX kernel
hackery, not by storing breakpoint instructions somewhere. */

to a target address, rather than reusing the old evaluation.
Jim Blandy <jimb@redhat.com>: As explained above in the comment
for bp_catch_exec and friends, I'm pretty sure this is entirely
unnecessary. A call to breakpoint_re_set_one always recomputes
the breakpoint's address from scratch, or deletes it if it can't.
So I think this assignment could be deleted without effect. */
