At one point, perhaps 6-7 years ago, a student had windows binary rewriting working to the point where you could do basic binary rewriting on notepad.exe. They left before finishing the project, and it was never feature complete nor functional on complicated binaries. You're likely seeing the remains of that effort. I don't know how much of that code is still valid or useful.

Hi,

looking at the codebase, a lot of code seems to already be there.
I'll be getting to know the code in more details. Any directions
into what would need to be implemented or what parts are missing?

Thanks,
Alex

BTW, if there are any individuals or groups that would like to work on
getting rewriting to work on Windows, we'd be happy to provide support.
Not a small effort but interesting and worthwhile.

No, and not exactly. Windows binary rewriting is not supported, and is
documented as such. If it were to be supported, what you are doing
would work quite reasonably.
