Thanks for the feedback - I'm shortly sending a v2 version which
prints the syscall name with an open parenthesis, e.g. "read(" or "getcwd(",
before calling the syscall. That way you can see where it crashed/hangs...
... but I cannot see passed arguments (for example, whether NULL is passed, or somrthing that looks like a real address)...
