I should add to this that not all systems need a trampoline. For example,
on some systems (e.g., Alpha/VMS and RS/6000) a pointer to a function is
actually a pointer to a descriptor for the function. This discriptor
contains space for a static chain. On those systems, what gets put
on the stack and pointed to is a copy of the descriptor, not executable code.
