Yes, I'd pretty much sorted things out the same way.  What I couldn't figure
out is *why* those macros were in nm-i386.h and nm-linux.h in the first
place.  Especially when they were already correctly defined in gdb/target.h.

So, my version of a fix was to undef 
target_{remove,insert}_{,hw}_{watch,break}point right after the inclusion
of defs.h in breakpoint.c.  That's where the overrides were disabling
remote operations, and I wasn't sure if doing away with them altogether
would break something elsewhere.

My query regarding this issue to the gdb mailing list on 1/6/06 has
so far gone ignored.
