FIXED! (was Re: Linux emulation)

[Matthew Dillon]

    It's fixed.  It took a very long time to track down.  I had to fetch
    the debian source packages for glibc to figure out where it was dying.

    It was a my-bad.  I thought I had maintained the zeroing of %edx on
    program startup but I forgot that system calls load the return value
    into %eax,%edx and this was overriding the zero'd out registers.

    Linux needs %edx to be NULL on program startup.  If it isn't linux
    registers it as an atexit() function.

    I still can't completely install linux_base-6, but I'm hoping the
    remaining issues are not OS-related.  Perhaps Jeroen can take it up
    from here now that I fixed the my-bad.
