From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <[email protected]>
Apparently, GDB gets confused when we do an execvp() on ourselves.
Since it's simply done to allocate further space for command line arguments
(which we'll use to allow gathering the startup command line for guest
processes through the host), allow the user to disable that to get a
debuggable UML binary.
