Of course it doesn't :-( And in the mean time it's impossible to enable
snooping for a single dll.

That's a rather rare thing to happen and it's not a common way of windows
programming either. But in any case you are right: snooping is a very
fragile feature.

Unfortunately not for me (debugging huge MS Office apps). Also that
exception handling block somehow influences the whole way of execution
of the debugged (snooped) application: it might crash without +snoop,
not crash with it, and vice versa.
