Yes, I am :)  Let me know if this impacts the information we need to
pass via the *_register() call to the core module.

Currently, I pass the old function name (char *), new function pointer
(void *), and the old_addr (optional, unsigned long).  The old_addr
serves to identify the old function by address instead of name if that
information is provided.

Thanks,
Seth
