/*
Several Foundation classes (NSBundle, NSProcessInfo, ...) need access
to the argc, argv, and env variables of the main() function. The purpose
of this (ugly hack) definition is to give the libobjects library the
oportunity to implement its own main function with private access to the
global vars. The private main() implementation then will call the user
defined (now renamed to LibobjectsMain()) function. The libobjects main()
functions is implemented in NSProcessInfo.m
*/
/* Currently this only actually necessary if we don't have ELF.
If we have ELF, we can do something far cleaner.
See src/NSProcessInfo.m [__ELF__].
Hopefully, in the future, we'll do something cleaner
with non-ELF systems too.

NOTE! This is very dirty and dangerous trick. I spend several hours
on thinking and man pages browsing, but couldn't find better solution.
I know that I will spend 666 years in the Computer Hell for writing
this hack, and the master devil (Bully Boy) will send me to write
Windowz software.
BTW, for writing this hack I got personal congratulations from Dennis
Ritchie and Bjarne Stroustrup sent me a bunch of flowers and asked me
to participate in the standardization committee for C-- v.6.0 as
responsible for the new Tab-Overriding-Operator and Scope-Sensitive-
Comments ... but this makes my situation even worse ;-)
