It's not *that* hard, it just takes writing some code.  We did
this in a simulation paper: "Understanding Data Lifetime via
Whole System Simulation" available at
<URL:http://www.stanford.edu/~blp/papers>, although our
implementation used Bochs instead of qemu because qemu wasn't
quite ready at the time.
