+It is possible that a breakpoint correspond to several locations 
+in your program.  Examples of this situation are:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+
+@item
+For a C@t{++} constructor, the @value{NGCC} compiler generates several
+instances of the function body, used in different cases.
+
+@item
+For a C@t{++} template function, a given line in the function can
+correspond to any number of instantiations.
+
+@item
+For an inlined function, a given source line can correspond to
+several places where that function is inlined.
+
+@end itemize
+
+In all those cases, @value{GDBN} will insert a breakpoint at all
+the relevant locations.
+
+A breakpoint with multiple locations is displayed in the
+breakpoint table using several rows --- one header row, followed
+by one row for each breakpoint location.  The header row
+has @samp{<MULTIPLE>} in the address column.  The rows for
+individual locations contain the actual addresses for locations,
+and say what functions those locations are in.  The number
+column for a location has number in the format 
+@var{breakpoint-number}.@var{location-number}.
+
+For example:
+@smallexample
+Num     Type           Disp Enb  Address    What
+1       breakpoint     keep y    <MULTIPLE>

+1.2                         y    0x080486ca in void foo<double>() at t.cc:8
+@end smallexample

+Each location can be individually enabled or disabled by passing
+@var{breakpoint-number}.@var{location-number} as argument to the
+@code{enable} and @code{disable} commands.

 @cindex pending breakpoints
-If a specified breakpoint location cannot be found, it may be due to the fact
-that the location is in a shared library that is yet to be loaded.  In such
-a case, you may want @value{GDBN} to create a special breakpoint (known as
-a @dfn{pending breakpoint}) that
-attempts to resolve itself in the future when an appropriate shared library
-gets loaded.
+It's quite common to have a breakpoint inside a shared library.
+The shared library may be loaded and unloaded explicitly,
+and possibly repeatedly, as the program is executed.  To support
+this use case, @value{GDBN} updates breakpoint locations whenever
+any shared library is loaded or unloaded.  Typically, you would
+set a breakpoint in a shared library at the beginning of your 
+debugging session, when the library is not loaded, and when the
+symbols from the library are not available.  When you try to set
+breakpoint, @value{GDBN} will ask you if you want to set
+a so called @dfn{pending breakpoint} --- breakpoint whose address 
+is not yet resolved.
 
-Pending breakpoints are useful to set at the start of your
-@value{GDBN} session for locations that you know will be dynamically loaded
-later by the program being debugged.  When shared libraries are loaded,
-a check is made to see if the load resolves any pending breakpoint locations.
-If a pending breakpoint location gets resolved,
-a regular breakpoint is created and the original pending breakpoint is removed.
+After the program is run, whenever a new shared library is loaded,
+@value{GDBN} reevaluates all the breakpoints.  When a newly loaded
+shared library contains the symbol or line referred to by some
+pending breakpoint, that breakpoint is resolved and becomes an
+ordinary breakpoint.  When a library is unloaded, all breakpoints
+that refer to its symbols or source lines become pending again.
 
-@value{GDBN} provides some additional commands for controlling pending
-breakpoint support:
+This logic works for breakpoints with multiple locations, too.  For
+example, if you have a breakpoint in a C@t{++} template function, and
+a newly loaded shared library has an instantiation of that template,
+a new location is added to the list of locations for the breakpoint.
+
+Except for having unresolved address, pending breakpoints do not
+differ from regular breakpoints.  You can set conditions or commands,
+enable and disable them and perform other breakpoint operations.

-@cindex operations allowed on pending breakpoints
-Normal breakpoint operations apply to pending breakpoints as well.  You may
-specify a condition for a pending breakpoint and/or commands to run when the
-breakpoint is reached.  You can also enable or disable
-the pending breakpoint.  When you specify a condition for a pending breakpoint,
-the parsing of the condition will be deferred until the point where the
-pending breakpoint location is resolved.  Disabling a pending breakpoint
-tells @value{GDBN} to not attempt to resolve the breakpoint on any subsequent
-shared library load.  When a pending breakpoint is re-enabled,
-@value{GDBN} checks to see if the location is already resolved.
-This is done because any number of shared library loads could have
-occurred since the time the breakpoint was disabled and one or more
-of these loads could resolve the location.
