Fix GDB PR cli/926.
	* cli/cli-decode.c (add_setshow_uinteger_cmd): New function.
	* command.h (add_setshow_uinteger_cmd): Declare.
	* frame.c (set_backtrace_cmd): New function.
	(show_backtrace_cmd): New function.
	* frame.c (_initialize_frame): Replace "set/show
	backtrace-below-main" with "set/show backtrace past-main".  Add
	command "set/show backtrace limit".
	(backtrace_past_main): Rename "backtrace_below_main".
	(backtrace_limit): New variable.
	(get_prev_frame): Update.  Check the backtrace_limit.

2003-08-09  Andrew Cagney  <cagney@redhat.com>

	* gdb.texinfo (Backtrace): Replace "set/show backtrace-below-main"
	with "set/show backtrace past-main" and "set/show backtrace
	limit".

 Backtraces will stop when they encounter the user entry point.  This is the
 default.
