It's a memory-misuse tool (like many others). The interesting bit is that it works by emulating x86 code (specifically for x86 GNU/Linux, although other x86 OS's might be possible). So it strikes me that it's a working (GNU GPL) x86 emulator, somewhat tailored to running things in a GNU/Linux environment. And it works reasonably acceptably, too. Even if it's not directly usable code, there ought to be things that could be stolen (presuming that GNU GPL code is acceptable for plex86; I've forgotten what license was intended).
