   So I have an answer to this now:   
      
   you can use the getpid() syscall to get the process ID, then open and   
   read /proc//cmdline   
      
   Apparently this method exists in Unix too.   
      
   So that relieves the burden on the stack   
   format. It does mean that the OS needs to   
   recognize the special open of "/proc", but   
   that's fine - that will be easier to implement   
   in standard C code.
