Hi Giuliano, thanks for your time on testing it!  Could you kindly help to
explain a bit on why "In such way we can't use the this space to place a
trampoline to the new function"? Is it due to inefficient code like needing
more branches?

global entry:
  [b localentry]
L1:
  [patched code]

localentry:
  [b L1]

Or some other reason which makes it unused at all?
