_result can get bound to the wrong value in a breakpoint

Using test result001 in the example below. :list shows that the tick is wrapping map id xs (it is not appreciated here, but the said subexpression is highlighted in ghci).

However _result seems to be bound to the value of f xs

*Main> :b 1 20
Breakpoint 1 activated at result001.hs:1:12-20
*Main> f "abc"
Stopped at result001.hs:1:12-20
_result :: Bool
xs :: [a]
... [result001.hs:1:12-20] *Main> :list
1  f xs = case map id xs of
2           [] -> True
... [result001.hs:1:12-20] *Main> :fo _result
*** Ignoring breakpoint
_result = False
