Sure, see below.
Head of ChangeLog:
2008-10-24 Michael Snyder <msnyder@vmware.com>
* infrun.c (handle_inferior_event): Handle dynamic symbol
resolution in reverse.
Test app:
18 volatile int global_foo = 0;
19
20 int
21 main (int argc, char **argv)
22 {
23 asm ("nop"); /* 1st insn */
24 asm ("nop"); /* 2nd insn */
25 asm ("nop"); /* 3rd insn */
26 asm ("nop"); /* 4th insn */
27 if (!global_foo)
28 goto ahead;
29 asm ("nop"); /* 5th insn */
30 asm ("nop"); /* 6th insn */
31 asm ("nop"); /* 7th insn */
32 asm ("nop"); /* 8th insn */ <<<<< bkpt here
33 ahead:
34 asm ("nop"); /* 9th insn */ <<<<< and here
35 end:
36 return 0;
37 }
Normal play:

Ok, breakpoint 3 was hit (notice the goto at line 28, it's
always executed because global_foo is always 0)

Now the same, but while recording (replay exhibits the
same symptom)

Breakpoint 3 should've been hit, not 2. The PC points at
0x8048392, but it should point at 0x8048393.
Feels like we're going in circles. :-)
