-----------------[ UNICOS Shellcoding CRAY PVP
The CRAY PVP does not natively support a 'syscall'
instruction(unlike the new Cray X1, where
the OS node provides a system call interface to the
other nodes.) instead, we will use the
systems standard libaries (which are linked in to
most, if not all applications). Particularly
we will focus on 'libu.a', which provides the UNICOS
Standard Library.
