Isn't crashme a really generic tool? A few months ago, someone used
a system call checker to find bugs that crashme was too slow to find.
I suspect that a really good tool would make 5% of the junk code be
the system call interrupt. It might be good to set up odd situations
with signal handlers, threads, and x86 segments before executing the
junk code.
