Sorry, I think you're missing my point here. The idea is to make
gcore always write out a NT_XSTATE note that has the maximal size
(I386_XSTATE_MAX_SIZE, I now see I typed the wrong thing above). Then
when you write out the section, you fill the bits that aren't used
with zeroes and make sure the value of xcr0 stored in there is set
correctly.
