the difficult part of dynamic linking is more in the compiler
and linker than in the kernel proper.  since i'm just running
already-created linux binaries, there's hardly any trouble.

the linuxemu i posted has an "mmap" function that allocates
memory and reads the whole file into it.  not quite the most
efficient way to do it.  i wrote a real mmap for the kernel at the
time, but it didn't seem worth keeping.  the user-side interface
for the kernel mmap is commented out.
