Just tested the new version, and the behaviour seems better this way, 
thanks.

One last thing I was thinking about (for now !) is to save all 
breakpoints' environment into the memory snapshot.

This way, when debugging a complicated program, it would be possible to 
save the breakpoints into the snapshot and exit hatari, and then to reload 
it later to resume work in the same context.
