If libc.so.6 is prelinked, it cannot be run as program:
(ld-linux.so.2 as program works, since it does not use AT_PHDR)

It dies because it tries to dereference AT_PHDR (see the strange value above).
Interesting data:

So, AT_ENTRY is correct ((e_entry 0x4103c410 - first_pt_load_vaddr 0x4101e000) + mmap address 0x80000000),
AT_BASE too (though the source is confusing, AT_BASE is in fact bias, not
address), but AT_PHDR is wrong, points to kernel memory.
AT_PHDR was computed as first PT_LOAD's p_vaddr (0x4101e000) minus first
PT_LOAD's p_offset (0) plus mmap address (0x80000000) plus e_phoff.
But we want AT_PHDR to be a pointer to ElfW(Phdr) where it is mapped in
memory, and e_phoff is offset from start of the file.
Above is a fix (load_bias is the difference between addresses actually mapped
and virtual addresses noted in file, first PT_LOAD's p_vaddr - p_offset is
the difference between virtual addresses noted in file and file locations,
so adding them together we get actual virtual addresses minus file locations
difference, which is exactly what we need, so that we can add e_phoff
(offset into file in bytes) to it to get ElfW(Phdr) virtual address).
Should apply to any kernel out there, at least all 2.2.*-2.4.* kernels have
this bug.
