After seeing a guy debug 'previously-un-debuggable' malware at DefCon [1], I don't know how much faith I'd put in off-the-shelf utilities. However, I also don't know much about this field, and I'm definitely not sure about what you want the obfuscation for. Keep in mind, though, "secure by design" is generally a much better goal than "security by obscurity."
