I don't think this will help much, as the main part that makes it different 
is __libc_start_main with it's differing arguments and the AUX vector 
handling IIRC.

I guess either we have to leave it the way it is (looking back this file 
doesn't change often, so it's no real problem) or we macrofy the common 
stuff into a header.
