[panda-users] The architecture useafterfree plugin supports

[Brendan Dolan-Gavitt]

Strangely enough both are correct :) There is an ifdef in the plugin
that disables the code on i386-softmmu (this is not strictly necessary
and the limitation could be removed).

The plugin does actually support both 4 and 8 byte words, in an
attempt to cover both 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems running on
x86_64-softmmu. However, since the calling convention is different on
x86_64 (using registers rather than stack arguments) this won't
actually work.

So, in practice, only 32-bit operating systems running on the
x86_64-softmmu target are supported, which I admit is a slightly
strange situation to be in.
