/* This is the canonical entry point, usually the first thing in the text

   point runs, most registers' values are unspecified, except for:

   v0 ($2)	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.

   sp ($29)	The stack contains the arguments and environment:
		0(%esp)			argc
		4(%esp)			argv[0]
		...
		(4*argc)(%esp)		NULL
		(4*(argc+1))(%esp)	envp[0]
		...
					NULL
   ra ($31)	The return address register is set to zero so that programs
		that search backword through stack frames recognize the last
		stack frame.
