I’ve started playing with gcc’s mudflap tool. It doesn’t work to its fullest when only the target program is instrumented. You can’t turn on the reading-initialisation-data checks because it fails the first time the uninstrumented GTK sends you an event (even with the heuristics for uninstrumented code turned on). On the other hand I have found one bug with it already, but only because it broke gconf sufficiently to replicate bug #300423.
