undump

Make a new executable with format loaded.

Undump implements the pre-web2c mechanism for generating a new executable from an existing executable and a core dump. The output executable contains all the memory allocated by the run of the executable (up to its crash), and starts at main().

Different Unix styles (of the time) each had their own undump routine.
