Original instructions are not useful for debugging, since they have map_fds which can be long gone when program is running, therefore to solve introspection problem we need to look into real kernel instructions.
The only possible legitimate use I see for the original instructions is checkpoint/restart. If 6wind wants this for "external acceleration" or whatever, like Alexei I am not interested in facilitating that at all.
