Do the flags go in the ELF loader or in the executable we're running?
Or both (and, if both, do we and them or or them)?

I think the interpreter makes a little more sense in general: for the
most part, use of vsyscalls is a property of the runtime environment,
not of the program being run.  But maybe this is naive.
They go into each object which becomes part of the running program, i.e.
executable, dynamic libraries, and dynamic linker.
