 That's why - GDB doesn't know about the _from_arm stubs.  It would have
 to be taught that they should be skipped automatically.  It thinks
 you've stepped into a function that doesn't have any debugging
 information.
 
 Thanks - I can't promise to fix this right away, but this was an
 excellent bug report, so an interested hacker should be able to
 fix it straightforwardly.
