* However, jumping to a start symbol like this:
*
* _start:
* call main
*
* will NOT work, as call pushes an extra value (the return value)
* onto the stack. If you really require an assembler stub, it should
* decrement the stack value to account for this.
*
* ie.
*
* _start:
* popl %eax
* call main

* This does not apply for arm, as arguments are passed in registers.
