this seems like it should work, but sometimes the computed PC for the
next line is way off, and cont() just runs the entire program. even more
confusing, doing pcline of the computed pc prints the next line
correctly, e.g.

x = filepc(pcfile(*PC)+":"+itoa(pcline(*PC)+1));
print(pcline(x));

will show the next line, but the new PC in x is totally wrong.

any clue why?
