I was thinking of the struct breakpoint's source_file and line_number,
which are used mostly for printing (clear_command uses it for finding
breakpoints). For print_mention_ranged_breakpoint I'd need
source_file_range_end and line_number_range_end, but decided against it.
But now that you mention breakpoint re-setting, I just realised that I
need to add addr_string_range_end and make breakpoint_re_set_one use it.
As the patch currently stands, ranged breakpoints will be dropped when
loading new binaries... I'm currently working on this but decided to
send this patch as it is since it addresses all the other points you
raised.

Yes, it applied on top of the masked watchpoints patch. Since this one
seems to be closer to being accepted than the masked watchpoints one, I
reordered the series and now this patch applies directly to mainline.
The changes were minimal (just had to add the print_one_detail
breakpoint_ops method).

Good point. I had to stare at the code for a while to understand (again)
what was going on with print_one_breakpoint and
print_breakpoint_location, it's not very easy to follow (and I thought I
got it right the first time!). Now I just call print_breakpoint_location
directly.

I think I was using that function somewhere else in a previous
incarnation of this patch series, so it stayed. I didn't think it was a
problem since it is analogous to other functions in ui-out.c.

No, the end location should default to the same file and line number as
the start location. This makes it possible to have ranges like:
(gdb) break-range foo.c:27, +14
Had I used parse_breakpoint_sals, GDB would interpret "+14" as "14 lines
from the current file and line number", and not "14 lines from the start
location". As for the extra treatment, I had a look at them before and
didn't think they applied in the context of resolving the end location.
Though perhaps now that I'll need to have a b->addr_string_range_end,
the code ensuring there are addr_strings may be useful. I don't know
yet.

So I just followed his advice and used the new method instead of the
deprecated one which is used by the other breakpoint-related functions.

+Set a breakpoint for an address range.
+@var{start-location} and @var{end-location} can specify a function name,
+a line number, an offset of lines from the current line or from the start
+location, or an address of an instruction (see @ref{Specify Location},
+for a list of all the possible ways to specify a @var{location}.)
