Some of architectures do not us the stack protector (for example, retguard or hppa with reverse stack). So they do not call __stack_smash_handler(), and do not call sendsyslog(2). On those architectures, we can onditionally remove the syscall stub (which also removes it from the pinsyscalls table), and the stack protector handler. ok miod

Make sure the syscall table entries are aligned on a 4-byte boundary. Required for strict-alignment architectures and a good idea on others. same as kettenis commit to libc

crt0 uses a helper function in a MD src/libexec/ld.so .h file (rather than reproducing the relevant defines and code in a different place) to perform minor relocations. If things go very wrong, it would call _dl_exit() -- a locally defined crt0 function which is syscall exit(2). We don't need to call exit(2) for this obscure case which doesn't happen and provides no debugging information. An 'abort' is going to provide better information. So let's change the function name to _dso_abort() and make it a single illegal instruction. ok guenther

For strange reasons which made sense at the time, the text segment was placed head of the btext (boot.text) segment. (the boot.text segment is "unmapped" after initization, as a self-protection mechanism). this meant the LOAD's virtual addresses were not in sequence, which clearly isn't what we intended.
