There's also another, more painful case when hooking on the libc level
won't do: when you have nested programs.  All you see inside the
library is what your program does, but not what the children do.

To solve this on the application level, you'd need to hook Int 31h and
filter the calls, like dbgcom.c does.  That's painful and slow.
