we've done it a bunch, and it can be easy to impossible, depending on
your software and situation.  if you never removed observability, your
software should move over ok.  if your observability was removed, you
have to recompile.  if your source is a mess, it's hard.  and you don't
have your source, well.., you're stuck.
