I was thinking that STEPI might be easier to debug :-)
Anyway, trying modifying gdbarch_read_pc and unwind_pc (I suspect you
need to modify both - which is a bug) to read something like:
if (instruction nullified)
return next-pc
else
return this-pc
it should fool GDB into thinking that it's one instruction ahead of itself.
