Did you miss my comment last time or just not think it flowed better?

  ...TB in the chain may not have updated. By default when no hook is
  defined a call is made to @set_pc(tb->pc). If more state needs to be
  restored the front-end must provide a hook function and restore all the
  state there.

Either way:
