My original motivation for this was pin (http://www.pintool.org/)
However that got fixed in pin after I posted v1.

Then people kept emailing me that they had their own applications with
similar problems. I don't have a lot of details on those, but I hope others
will chime in on this thread.

e.g. Dirk claimed he had a bunch. Dirk?
