/* This is the canonical entry point, usually the first thing in the text
   segment.  The SVR4/i386 ABI (pages 3-31, 3-32) says that when the entry
   point runs, most registers' values are unspecified, except for:

   %edx		Contains a function pointer to be registered with `atexit'.
		This is how the dynamic linker arranges to have DT_FINI
		functions called for shared libraries that have been loaded
		before this code runs.

   %esp		The stack contains the arguments and environment:
		0(%esp)			argc
		4(%esp)			argv[0]
		...
		(4*argc)(%esp)		NULL
		(4*(argc+1))(%esp)	envp[0]
		...
