lguest: documentation I: Preparation
The netfilter code had very good documentation: the Netfilter Hacking HOWTO.
Noone ever read it.
So this time I'm trying something different, using a bit of Knuthiness.

+/*P:100 This is the Launcher code, a simple program which lays out the
+ * "physical" memory for the new Guest by mapping the kernel image and the
+ * virtual devices, then reads repeatedly from /dev/lguest to run the Guest.
+ *
+ * The only trick: the Makefile links it at a high address so it will be clear
