Humm, yes I think it might be considered a bug, as either it shouldn't
place the breakpoints on global or persistent statements or it should
stop at them.. However, this stuff appears to be set in the parse tree,
which is a bit of the code I don't want to touch, and so I hope someone
else will propose a patch :-)
