Cyrill, this is bad explanation from my pov. When we call execve what
happens is -- we load a big blob into memory, but still we use the
sections in it. So is the parasite/restorer -- we do load some binary
into some place in ram and keeping sections is OK.

Not the whole blob is executable, right? And the fact that we make it
such doesn't make the project better :\

I'd keep sections and put "resolve sections permissions/attributes on load"
item in the todo list.
