You left out  a pretty important one (at least, as of last time I 
looked at the code) which is that you depend pretty heavily on Windows 
functionality. IIRC there are a lot of places where the code is manualy 
hacked about that would need cleaning up.

I'm sure the concept could be applied cross platform (well as long as 
the target can actually handle dynamic loading at all) with some more 
work. After all, I claimed it could back in '95 when trying to persuade 
my  then-boss at ParcPlace...
