I haven't noticed any access to DR7. The code looks like DR2 should be 
written at some point, but I haven't been able to find where. I think it 
would help if we could implement an exception handler for DR0..3 read/write 
accesses which would just store the value somewhere in memory and return it 
when the DR registers are read.
