top of stack function for libc

[Mark Galassi <rosalia@cygnus.com>]

Below is the response I got from Ulrich when I asked him if he could
put a top of stack function into glibc.

If we go ahead and implement top of stack functions for all
architectures, we should have autoconf start by checking for
__top_of_stack_at_main_entry().

Hi,

I assume you haven't heard anything from your people, right?

Then I'll probably add

	__top_of_stack_at_main_entry()

As I wrote before I have problems with a function name without leading
__ since is want avoid the pollution of the name space.  If you find
this unacceptable I could add the unprotected name as a weak alias but
I really don't see this is necessary.
