I don't think so, because reverse debugging is not limited to record
and replay.

But I see what you mean. Maybe this:

or until the execution reaches the point that is as close to the
inferior's start as @value{GDBN} can. (This could be the start of
the inferior executable code or the start of the record log, for
example.)
