This looks perfectly fine. 4211 = CLR.B (A1) which is the instruction
that was supposed to be retried.

UAE 68030 emulation uses those undocumented internal registers to store
instruction state. Like real CPU does to enable continuation of
instruction, when it gets "retried", instruction actually continues
where it was left, any already completed memory accesses before fault
are stored in bus error stack frame and must not be retried. (UAE 68030
MMU reruns whole instruction with memory access routines returning
stored data so end result still matches real 68030 behavior)

I simply used those undocumented fields without even trying to check how
real CPU uses them, it probably would have been impossible to
reverse-engineer anyway. Only documented fields work like documented.
