Minor nit.  If you put the new function here, you don't
need the forward declaration.

Can't this happen in some circunstances, like the user hitting
finish after stepi through
no-debug-info-at-all-not-even-minimal-symbols code?

If you don't want to think about it now, could you error out
in the async+reverse case ?

Would calling step_1 or step_once instead work here?  It would
probably avoid the kludge.

I'm no reverse guru, but your comments made sense to me.
