V850E simulator, assembler single-step never returns?!?

I say this because insight is really stupid. It really doesn't know much 
  about targets, other than the semantics of "target FOO BAR".

Okay, that's not true. There is one place that I recall where Insight 
knows more about the target than gdb. That is (oddly enough) with the 
V850 and the ICE that NEC has. But fortunately, the simulator is being 
used here.

Yeah, the insight execution buttons (run, step, stepi, next, nexti, 
finish, continue) map one-to-one with gdb commands. We do change run a 
little bit, but it eventually either maps to run or continue, depending 
on the target configuration database built into insight.
