   1999-06-08: The following were re-written so that it assumes the
   existence of a TARGET_READ_PC et.al. macro.  A default generic
   version of that macro is made available where needed.

   Since the ``TARGET_READ_PC'' et.al. macro is going to be controlled
   by the multi-arch framework, it will eventually be possible to
   eliminate the intermediate read_pc_pid().  The client would call
   TARGET_READ_PC directly. (cagney). */
