trackgcroot.py does not recognize some constructs used when compiling with
-fPIC.
I thought I fixed them though...
Anyway it will crash at runtime: because of code relocation, function
pointers are actually
addresses into a translation table, which contains the real code address.
I already fixed this for Windows a long time ago.

Meanwhile, the best thing to do is to avoid assembler magic, and translate
with the option:
   --gcrootfinder=shadowstack
