Clang16 links the purgatory text in two sections:

And both of them have their range [sh_addr ... sh_addr+sh_size] on the
area pointed by `e_entry`.
This causes that image->start is calculated twice, once for .text and
another time for .text.hot. The second calculation leaves image->start
in a random location.
Because of this, the system crashes inmediatly after:
