David,

I'm guessing that ``gate page'' is vsyscall page?  Whats the Linux 
kernel status on this one?

Last I heard was a kernel patch to make auxv info available in the core 
file, and via the /proc and ptrace interfaces.

Thing is, if that's done, those extra memory sections can go back to 
being extra memory sections (and everything becomes much simpler).
