Optimization: prescan() returns -1 if the very first instruction
has already been prescanned, and is virtualized. Since this
instruction must be emulated, flagging this condition allows
us to eliminate unnecessary exception processing. Pretty cool,
just a few lines of code eliminated about 5% of execution time
in plex86.
