We have no code for addressing breakpoints by numbers at all: This line is not printed, all the commands in ddb_break.c accept an address as parameter only and the manual lines date back to 1998, so probably just left-overs.
I could also zap the other commented lines in ddb.4 for the sake of completeness if noone objects. OK?
