Yes, that does look like a mistake.

Yup.

The goal was to catch intructions that use a PC-relative branch, since 
the PC will not be what is expected.  Of course any instruction that 
changes the PC will have a problem too because the PC will be rewritten 
after the probe is completed.  So, yeah, this needs to be fixed.
