You can always set the current PC address in GDB before proceeding:

set $pc = 0x7e00

As the AVR (undocumentedly) treats opcode ffff as a NOP, I think 
the simulator could even just continue.  There are possible 
scenarios where this feature could be used deliberately, e. g. 
by including a patch area in the code that is simply run through 
as long as it is ffff but which can be written later on to 
include additional features.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
