We've avoided this GCCism pretty much.  I don't think the code is 
significantly cleaner with it so I think it's best to avoid it.

The previous patch doesn't build because this patch is where you 
introduce flags into watch points.  Please make sure the whole series 
builds and works at each patch.  Otherwise bisecting breaks.
