Comment (by diver):

 Replying to [comment:2 bonefish]:

The cause of the crash is that the runtime loader looks just like a
 regular executable -- and thus it can be loaded without problems -- but
 its entry function expects different parameters than a regular executable.
 The only solution I can think of is to add an explicit check whether the
 executable is the runtime loader.

 Serenity does exactly this
