I have since mostly finished it and changed a few things. Most of the changes were design changes so that the instrumentation stuff was as separated from the rest of the kernel (and thus easily condionitionally compiled out with minimal impact) as possible. Also, it now provides better support for handling other ABIs. It's not complete yet (it only has instrumentation for the native ABI at the moment) but I wanted to post this patch for feedback. I have tested it some and it is being tested some more on alpha and x86 at the moment.
