In the Hurd ports, _dl_start () does not return the normal way; instead,
_dl_sysdep_start () jumps to _dl_start_user directly using the RETURN_TO
macro.  Unlike in the i386 and x86_64 ports, the instruction that was
saving the returned user entry into a different register (to avoid it
getting clobbered by the _dl_init () call) was not marked as a part of
_dl_start_user, causing it to be skipped when jumping to _dl_start_user
using RETURN_TO, and control subsequently getting transferred to a
random address left in x21.

This should not make any difference for Linux ports, other than the
_dl_start_user label pointing to an earlier instruction.
