also, this makes relocatable code impossible to modify (temporarily).

This is because the original PPC code is in the JIT block cache and the JIT will
continue to use that. If you insert the blr before starting the game (use the boot
to pause feature), it'll work like how you expect it to.
An alternative is to clear the code cache.

clearing the code cache doesn't work. i am also well aware of applying modifications
before starting the game with boot to pause, but relocatable code is inaccessible.
