I'm not doing module debugging, only core kernel code debugging, but 
more or less I run into same situation (last time confirmed with Qemu 
0.7.1)

For additional info, sometimes I also suffered the other condition. 
Breakpoint is hit, but even if I delete it, the emulation still stops 
whenever the code at related physical address is hit. I tried to 
printf() every gdb command received by Qemu's gdbstub and it confirmed 
that breakpoint deletion command is actually received, but I can't 
confirm what is the real bug there.
