EIP points to the second int3 because that's where a simple return would
return to. do_trap() does not handle int3 special.

>From a quick check that seems to be the only code sequence which has:

     jcc     lbl

ENTRY(foo)

and ENTRY() aligns to a 16 byte boundary. So the simple fix for that is
below. We need objtool support to detect such places ...
