+A bit of background on crashme. It is a tool for testing the robustness
+of an operating environment using a technique of "Random Input" response
+analysis. This I first saw formally proposed in the book Cybernetics
+by Norbert Wiener, but which any parent who has observed his children
+playing and learning would be well disposed to describe in detail.
+
+* The operating environment under consideration is the user-mode process.
+
+* The Random Input is provided by the execution of a sequence of pseudo-random
+ data as an instruction stream.
+
+* The response analysis is to catch and record machine and software
+ generated exceptions/errors/signals and to retry using new random data
+ in both the current user-mode process and in newly created subprocesses.
