Yes, it did crash exactly at the lret of the _entry function. After trying to 
understand some of the funkiness in head.S i came up with following patch 
which did fix the problem but i should probably still look whats going wrong 
with the original code. Its get getting quite late around here so I'll just 
post what i have and get some sleep first. ;)

Let the linker figure out the correct address and just CALL the start_main 
entry point.
