>Description:
The code in infrun.c that single steps the target after it is stopped due to a hardware watchpoint does this by calling target_resume.  The result is that the target is sent an "s" packet -- even if SOFTWARE_SINGLE_STEP_P is defined to indicate that the target doesn't want that.

It appears that the following one line patch cures this (Patch relative to today's CVS):
