Hmm, I'm not too fond of backend code overwriting core values like that,
but I guess it's OK.  It's in the right hook anyway.  It's not worth it
to build a separate hooklet for this.

This should be static.  cb_each_sym should start a new line.

Use libsym->arch.resolved_addr == 0.  It's an address, not a boolean.  I
know this idiom is occasionally used in ltrace, but I can't stand it.

Use bp == NULL.

The double cast shouldn't be necessary here.  uintptr_t already is
void*, and when we convert it to integral, breakpoint_init will be
adjusted as well.

Static, newline.

Hmm, above you could just return CBS_CONT instead of CBS_FAIL, and
change this into a simple call.

if (libsym == NULL)

Please add a comment like this:

		/* XXX The double cast should be removed when
		 * arch_addr_t becomes integral type.  */

When I get around to it, I'll grep for "double cast" to find individual
cases.

if (bp_addr == 0)

With these nits fixed, I'll apply this patch.

Thanks,
