Hi. I realize I am 7 years late, but only now I had to instrument a 32-bit
application using SystemTap and Dyninst. I took a look in the latest code for
Dyninst, inside EmitterIA32::emitCall(), and to my little understanding I see
that there is still no support in passing the registers of the probe in order
for SystemTap to get them through enter_dyninst_uprobe_regs().

So can you please tell me, why can't Dyninst obtain the registers during
runtime on x86, and on x64 there is no such limitation?

Thank you.
