This week I worked on getting the trampoline mechanism to handle
instructions that take %rip as an implicit operand (e.g %rip-relative
MOVs and certain types of JMPs). There are a few more cases to be
handled, but currently all instructions in amd64_syscall() -- one of the
main functions I'm testing with -- can be traced without problems.
