New Revision: 325232
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/325232

Log:
  Set the return address for stack entry points to zero.
  
  Stack unwinders treat zero as a stop condition.  The value on the stack can
  be non-zero because thread stacks may be arbitrary memory provided via
  pthread_attr_setstack(3) or may be recycled from previous threads.
