Hi Wayne, I've just fixed the bug you found with breakpoint handling. It might be worth retesting with the latest git version, because this may be related. I would try reflashing your firmware before retesting. It looks like gdb may have fallen back on its own software breakpoint implementation due to the bug introduced by the latest breakpoint handling changes.
