 36/* This is the canonical entry point, usually the first thing in the text
 37   segment.  The SVR4/i386 ABI (pages 3-31, 3-32) says that when the entry
 38   point runs, most registers' values are unspecified, except for:
 39
 40   %edx		Contains a function pointer to be registered with `atexit'.
 41		This is how the dynamic linker arranges to have DT_FINI
 42		functions called for shared libraries that have been loaded
 43		before this code runs.
 44
 45   %esp		The stack contains the arguments and environment:
 46		0(%esp)			argc
 47		4(%esp)			argv[0]
 48		...
 49		(4*argc)(%esp)		NULL
 50		(4*(argc+1))(%esp)	envp[0]
 51		...
 52					NULL
