/* This is Damon's implementation of single step simulation. It suffers the
   following program:

   1 main () {
   2   char buf[10];
   3   puts ("test");
   4   strcmp (buf, "test");  puts ("test");
   5   exit (0);
   6 }

   You cannot `next' on line 4 in the above program. gdb puts a breakpoint
   to the return address of `strcmp', and when execution arrives that point,
   it is still in the line range and gdb attemps to resume it with single 
   steps. At that point the breakpoint at step_resume_break_address (return 
   address of strcmp) and single step's breakpoint mixes up and we end up
   with a breakpoint which its shadow and itself are identical.

   Fix that problem and use this version. FIXMEmgo.
