Xref issue #49 , issue #828 , issue #865 , etc. for Windows mixed-mode and for mixed-mode client issues.

On both Mac and Linux, mixing libraries not officially supported. Also on both, there's no WOW-like user-mode layer: 32-bit just talks directly to the kernel. We have yet to see any app that mixes modes. For now we do not plan to support mixed-mode except on Windows. We certainly don't plan to support mixing 32-bit and 64-bit libraries: we are currently hardcoding the ELF and Mach-O struct definitions for the current arch.

Xref issue #1532 for drsyms support

derekbruening commented 4 years ago

This is blocking cross-architecture support for drdecode and drcachesim, both for a single build with host!=target of a different bitwidth, and the future goal a single multi-arch build: #1684, #4318.
