from the description it is not clear whose
responsibility it is to guarantee the alignment
of sp on entry.
i think 0 stack size may work if signals are
blocked and then prohibiting it might not be
the right thing.
it's not clear how libc should deal with v5.3
kernels which don't have the stack+=stack_size
logic.
