True, that could be one way of doing it. As long as I don't build more code in allocated memory that could work, I guess. It also means I can rule out exceptions invoked by OS components (VDI, kernel, BIOS etc).

It's the best one so far. It seems I can get the PID of the running process, but my impression is that this won't help my case since I can't determine if the call was actually made by the process itself or by some subsystem.
