+/* This is the canonical entry point, usually the first thing in the text
+   segment.
+
+	Note that the code in the .init section has already been run.
+	This includes _init and _libc_init
+
+	The stack pointer, sp, will point to the argument count on the stack.
+	The initial state of the stack when a userspace process is started is:
+
+	    Purpose			Start Address	Length
+	    Unspecified			High Addresses
+	    Referenced strings, etc.			Varies
+	    Unspecified
+	    Null auxilliary vector entry		4bytes
+	    Auxilliary vector entries			8bytes each
+	    NULL terminator for envp			4bytes
+	    Environment pointers	sp+8+4*argc	4bytes each
+	    NULL terminator for argv	sp+4+4*argc	4bytes
+	    Argument pointers		sp+4		4bytes each
+	    Argument count		sp		4bytes
+	    Unspecified			Low Addresses
+
+	If the application should register a destructor function with atexit,
+	the pointer will be placed in r4. Otherwise r4 will be zero.
+
+	The contents of all other registers are unspecified. User code should
+	set fp to zero to mark the end of the frame chain.
+
+	The auxilliary vector is a series of pairs of 32-bit tag and 32-bit
+	value, terminated by an AT_NULL tag.
