But this isn't the default.  Thinking about this scares me.

Am I right in saying that std{in,out,err} are now real symbols rather 
than being #defines to the __sF array an that the real symbols will 
*always* simply refer to the same memory as the __sF array through the 
life of libc.so.4 ?  If that's the case, then that sounds reasonable.

Otherwise I'm scared :*)
