Notes:
1. To get statifier to work properly, VDSO support must be disabled in
the kernel. This must be done on the system statifier is being run on,
before it's run. The converted binaries themselves don't require this,
only statifier itself. If you forget to do this, statifier will appear
to run OK, but the converted binaries will segfault when run.

2. Executables converted with statifier will show up as dynamic, in
'file' output, but ldd will say 'not a dynamic executable'.
3. A 64-bit statifier can only convert 64-bit binaries. Converting 32-bit
executables on a 64-bit system requires multilib and a 32-bit statifier
package. The SlackBuild maintainer hasn't tested multilib, and would
be interested to know what kind of results you get with it.
