Still internal_error?

Should be an error here instead of on finish_command ...

I guess calling step_once doesn't help then?  Otherwise, "kludgy" here
sounds unfair... This is, after all, the interface used
to request a single-step even in forward direction ...

Didn't Joel request you to not do this, but do,

finish_command
  if (execution_direction == EXEC_REVERSE)
   finish_backward ();
  else
   finish_forward ();

instead ?

(then, it makes sense to put the async + reverse error
inside finish_backward, IMHO.)
