+ When we stop at a breakpoint, the IA queue front (the instruction
+ we're executing now) points at the breakpoint instruction, and
+ the IA queue back (the next instruction to execute) points to
+ whatever instruction we would execute after the breakpoint, if it
+ were an ordinary instruction. This is the case even if the
+ breakpoint is in the delay slot of a branch instruction.
+
+ Clearly, to step past the breakpoint, we need to set the queue

+ instruction comes after that one? Because of the branch delay
+ slot, the next insn is always at the back + 4. */
