I believe it should work on OpenBSD, but it's only been tested on Linux
to my knowledge.  One problem I just noticed, is that the mprotect call
is assumed to succeed.  The return code should be checked on all system
calls and have proper error handling.  I'm going to update John's patch
to do that, and also search through the loader for similar errors.
