I dont think the baseband firmware is exactly mask programmed, so the
technical challenge is probably conquerable unless the audio really
never passes in reach of that cpu either (even on its way to/from the
bluetooth - that something may usually be done via peripheral to
peripheral dma does not mean that it has to be).   However the narrow
utility and location-dependent legality of recording calls suggest
that its probably not a high priority.
