Gerald,
As a long time advocate of "the simplest thing that will work", I am
wondering at what your goal and purpose is here. What cool things are
you doing/adding that require a write barrier?
Perhaps you should be looking at VMMaker and doing things at the VM
level? If so, you might make a case in the vm-dev mailing list for
direct support.
