There you go.  This applies on top of Matt's
<http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-08/msg00570.html>.

I considered keeping the stack in order to make the code
that needs a secondary prompt, like ">" when entering
breakpoint commands go back to the top event loop on each
entered line, as the comment on event-top.h suggests.h,
but I think the stack (and its use) as is is broken by design,
and even if a stack ends up being the desired implementation, it's
better to start over from scratch anyway.  Things like:

-void
-pop_prompt (void)
-{
-  /* If we are not during a 'synchronous' execution command, in which
-     case, the top prompt would be empty.  */
-  if (strcmp (get_prompt (0), ""))
-    /* This is for the case in which the prompt is set while the
-       annotation level is 2.  The top prompt will be changed, but when
-       we return to annotation level < 2, we want that new prompt to be
-       in effect, until the user does another 'set prompt'.  */
-    if (strcmp (get_prompt (0), get_prompt (-1)))
-      set_prompt (get_prompt (0), -1);
-

Just Need To Go Away.

And, only the top level prompt needs the prefix and suffix,
so I see no need to keep those in any stack.
In this patch, the prefix and suffix aren't stored anywhere
even --- We now call top_level_prompt to compute the top
level / primary prompt, and that takes care of calling the
python hook, plus stapling the prefix and suffix, if
annotations are on.

I ended up not relying on the "more_to_come" global,
but instead to call display_gdb_prompt with an explicit
empty string.  This seems to make display_gdb_prompt better
abstracted -- if you want the primary/top prompt, call it
with NULL, if you want some secondary prompt, pass it in.

Tested on x86_64-linux, sync and async modes.  Fixes the
last async mode regressions compared to sync mode (quoted
at the top).

Comments?
