The text segment of a process is typically protected in order to allow multiple processes to run a program without needing to copy the program binary itself (protections guarantee it is immutable). Because libdsm lifts protections and actively modifies the segment, this makes it running more than once instance of the program at a time unsafe.

Though no solution to this problem is possible, the user must be made aware of this danger.
