* Started down the rabbit hole of trying to address (Bug: 216610
reported by Günther Noack on behalf of Michael Stapelberg)
* The basic issue is how to link C code with Go psx without using
CGo. This is all a low level hackery. If you are interested,
browse the source.

Debian build test, detail)
* Also reviewed man pages and addressed cross linkage issues (Bug:
* Cleaned up some README.md files (made a github mirror now just so
I can automatically render them).

This now builds everything with static linking except for libc.
The reason for this exception is explained in the commit message.
* Inserted demonstration exploit code in capso.so to support
article.
