I played with dyninst today. Here is a minimal working example:

Dyninst is a really cool project (after struggling to get it work),
and I am more confident that the "Dynamic instrumentation support in
UST" project is doable as a GSoC project. The systemtap project is a
great reference [1].

Expected results might be somthing like this:
