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.
