# Work around awkwardness in gdb's python printers:
# 1. In src/main-gdb-head.py, define the printer mechanism.
# 2. In src/*/*.py, define all the printer classes.
# 3. In src/main-gdb-tail.py, reflect to actually add the printers.

# gdb sticks everything in one scope.
# This lets us enumerate what *we* added.
