/* FIXME/cagney/2001-01-18: This should be split in two. A target method that i
ndicates if
the target needs software single step. An ISA method to implement it.
FIXME/cagney/2001-01-18: This should be replaced with something that inserts
breakpoints
using the breakpoint system instead of blatting memory directly (as with rs60
00).
FIXME/cagney/2001-01-18: The logic is backwards. It should be asking if the
target can
single step. If not, then implement single step using breakpoints. */
