"non-stop and sync mode" is really not supported.  non-stop is defined to
work only with async on.  There are many such assumptions in the code.  That the
test works in sync mode on native is just an accident.

I had a vague impression that "non-stop" works on top of async mode before. However, I was misled by the code that 'target_can_async_p' is checked on 'non-stop' path, and accordingly think "non-stop may work on sync mode". Anyway, thanks for confirming this.
