Should use "ax", do make the plt sections executable,
since the plt section contains code that branches.
Additionally, this will place the .plt section next
to .text, which improves icache usage, and minimizes
the branch distance.
Incidentally, why do we do strstr(name, ".init") instead
of strncmp(name, ".init", 5)? Is there any particular
need for the .init to come at the end?
