Could you not detect #UD from address where it happened? Kernel knows
where enclaves are mapped. BTW, how does Intel run-time emulate opcodes
currently?

Anyway, I've fully discarded the whole idea because implementing single
stepping w/o well defined AEP handler is nasty. I think vDSO's are the
only viable path that at least I'm aware off...
