Hi Don.

In addition to the other issues, this really needs to be broken up into many more patches.

Every patch should do *one* thing:

   - Code motion
   - Introduce an API
   - Introduce target-specific support for an API
   - Use an API to implement a monitor command
   - etc

Patch 3, 'Add an "info pg" command ...' attempts to do all of these at once, and so is at 
least 2000 lines too long, which makes the whole thing extraordinarily hard to review.
