This section of code is in crt0.s and copies stubinfo from dos memory
into an sbrk()'ed block of memory.  If we knew the values of ESI and
EDI it would certainly help understand why the rep movsl was failing.
(since we load ESI with zero, we could tell if it's failing on the first
move or someplace later).
