You got a couple of answers from those with knowledge. As they were not quite positive I may chirp in with the suggestion of obfuscation. E g encrypt a part or the whole of program X and let program Y decrypt that at execution time. The decryption key and decryption routine may be arbitrarily obfuscated. (This of course assumes that program X can be changed in that way.)
