I was actually confused, as I thought that SP pointed to the first
unused slot in the stack.

I will make the changes that you suggest and re-test.

One thing that just occured to me while driving home is why not
also use the AT_ENTRY_POINT approach. I figured that there must
have been a reason why we used AT_SYMBOL instead of AT_ENTRY_POINT.
But then, there is your comment that makes me think that the symbol
isn't usually defined, which means that most of (all?) the time,
we actually end up using AT_ENTRY_POINT. Do we know of any reason
why AT_ENTRY_POINT would not work? I'd assume that as long as the
object format is ELF, we'd have one, and so we could use that as
well.

Geee, are we ever going to reach a conclusion on this discussion? :-/
