/* When we enter this piece of code, the program stack looks like this:
        argc            argument counter (integer)
        argv[0]         program name (pointer)
        argv[1...N]     program args (pointers)
        argv[argc-1]    end of args (integer)
	NULL
        env[0...N]      environment variables (pointers)
        NULL

   For uClinux it looks like this:

        argc            argument counter (integer)
        argv            char *argv[]
        envp            char *envp[]
        argv[0]         program name (pointer)
        argv[1...N]     program args (pointers)
        argv[argc-1]    end of args (integer)
	NULL
        env[0...N]      environment variables (pointers)
        NULL

   When we are done here, we want
	a1=argc
	a2=argv[0]
	a3=argv[argc+1]
