+/* Core file format: The core file is written in such a way that gdb
+   can understand it and provide useful information to the user (under
+   linux we use the 'trad-core' bfd).  There are quite a number of
+   obstacles to being able to view the contents of the floating point
+   registers, and until these are solved you will not be able to view the
+   contents of them.  Actually, you can read in the core file and look at
+   the contents of the user struct to find out what the floating point
+   registers contain.
+   The actual file contents are as follows:
+   UPAGE: 1 page consisting of a user struct that tells gdb what is present
+   in the file.  Directly after this is a copy of the task_struct, which
+   is currently not used by gdb, but it may come in useful at some point.
+   All of the registers are stored as part of the upage.  The upage should
+   always be only one page.
+   DATA: The data area is stored.  We use current->end_text to
+   current->brk to pick up all of the user variables, plus any memory
+   that may have been malloced.  No attempt is made to determine if a page
+   is demand-zero or if a page is totally unused, we just cover the entire
+   range.  All of the addresses are rounded in such a way that an integral
+   number of pages is written.
+   STACK: We need the stack information in order to get a meaningful
+   backtrace.  We need to write the data from (esp) to
+   current->start_stack, so we round each of these off in order to be able
+   to write an integer number of pages.
+   The minimum core file size is 3 pages, or 12288 bytes.
