 From reading the stub, it's probably not obvious how breakpoints work.  They
 are simply done by deposit/examine operations from GDB.

+@chapter Longjmp Support
+
+GDB has support for figuring out that the target is doing a
+@code{longjmp} and for stopping at the target of the jump, if we are
+stepping.  This is done with a few specialized internal breakpoints,
+which are visible in the @code{maint info breakpoint} command.
+
+To make this work, you need to define a macro called
+@code{GET_LONGJMP_TARGET}, which will examine the @code{jmp_buf}
+structure and extract the longjmp target address.  Since @code{jmp_buf}
+is target specific, you will need to define it in the appropriate
+@file{tm-xxx.h} file.  Look in @file{tm-sun4os4.h} and
+@file{sparc-tdep.c} for examples of how to do this.
