Ltrace is a debugging program which runs a specified command until the
command exits.  While the command is executing, ltrace intercepts and
records both the dynamic library calls called by the executed process
and the signals received by the executed process.  Ltrace can also
intercept and print system calls executed by the process.

The following targets are currently (at least somewhat) supported.
Some of them may be more or less broken in reality, it is not feasible
