I am not sure why you have this comment about the call?
I tried to protect a file using PECOMPACT 2.79 and to me, it looks exactly like old versions, OEP is executed thru a jmp eax.
Also, i don't know why you bother with so many lines and tracing, it can be done in 5 lines:
sti
find eax, #FFE0#
bp $RESULT
run
sti
PS: doh, i didn't notice someone had answered a 6+ months old thread.
