Could be, yes.  I was thinking that if we use an initial fingerprint
value that's sufficiently unique, we could just look for this special
value and replace it without knowing "anything" about the executable
file format.

Another approach might be to generate the fingerprint on-the-fly at run
time (i.e. everytime a snapshot is dumped or loaded).  Not sure if that
can be made cheap enough easily enough, tho.
