  // before the following alignment. Best would be to not create any local
  // variables before the alignment. Also, note that we are aligning the stack
  // downwards as the x86_64 stack grows downwards. This ensures that we don't
  // tread on argc, argv etc.
  // NOTE: Compiler attributes for alignment do not help here as the stack
  // pointer on entry to this _start function is controlled by the OS. In fact,
  // compilers can generate code assuming the alignment as required by the ABI.
  // If the stack pointers as setup by the OS are already aligned, then the
  // following code is a NOP.
