OK, but how do I actually get the task to start / run? :D
I can't debug it if it's not run...

Also: I'm attaching my x86_64 build of mach-bootstrap-hello (gzipped;
I cited its source code up-thread). Naturally, it's statically linked
to my build of glibc, so you don't have to fetch my patches or build
glibc (downside: the included debuginfo will be mostly useless to
you). Please try it on your setup.
