We indeed do something similar, though not with atos, for CrashReporter
logs. However, for CFM libraries and for bundles, i.e., 99% of the code in
Office 2004, you still need to know where it was loaded, and it is not
obvious exactly where that would be stored in an .mshark file. We could
probably do some per-library guessing, but would rather take a deterministic
approach.
