Don't know for sure, but I think it mostly uses breakpoints.
However, when using breakpoints it will _always_ use a single-step to
get past the instruction after hitting a breakpoint.
Tony> Does step(s) mean single-stepping on GDB?
No. It means step a source-line. 'si' is single-instruction stepping.
