05d8417fa0 Initial checkin for stack protectors. Here's what it does:
* The prologue is modified to read the __stack_chk_guard global and insert it
  onto the stack.

* The epilogue is modified to read the stored guard from the stack and compare
  it to the original __stack_chk_guard value. If they differ, then the
  __stack_chk_fail() function is called.

* The stack protector needs to be first on the stack (after the parameters) to
  catch any stack-smashing activities.

Front-end support will follow after a round of beta testing.
