My testing shows that `go32_wait' on gdb/go32targ.c returns with GPF 
(exception 0Dh) under Windows when the debuggee hits a breakpoint.  The 
same program outside Windows 3.x runs OK under GDB: `go32_wait' returns 
with breakpoint exception.

Anyone has clues/hints as to what could be the cause(s)?  Do we tell
people that GDB cannot be used under Windows?  (FSDB works, btw.)
