I heard bph/bpha worked on x86_64. However, hardware breakpoint
was not implemented on IA64. Were you on IA64?

Greg Banks of SGI (gnb at sgi.com) provided patches for IA64. Many
thanks to Greg!
1) gnb-kdb-implement-bpha-v3
   This patch implemented bph/bpha on IA64.
2) gnb-test-kdb-bph
   This patch provided a test infrastructure to test all the ia64
   data* breakpoint features.

I have uploaded the patches to the download area.
