   embedded dataflow tracking code?

   Hi.   
      
   I would like to load debugger, attach to working process, and at some   
   breakpoint, instead of numerical values in the CPU registers, I would   
   like to see genesis of each value like "result of f(arg1, arg2,arg3)   
   called at point X" or "result of comparison of values X and Y" and so   
   on.   
      
   Probably, compiler backend could embed some dataflow tracking code   
   between basic blocks and store information about all variables flow in   
   some separate data segment..   
      
   Are there any known attempts or projects or...?
