Right, in this particular case it's read-only code so it shouldn't
harm so much and the code could be checked-in as is.  I'm however
wondering how these reads do not trigger traps, as we unmap page 0 in
clear_bootstrap(), and thus e.g. on i386 gs:0x14 should trap.

The way you did it seems right to me: checking printf size is more a
matter of newlib, while reacting to stack smashing is a kernel matter.
