Building with clang yields the following error:
```
  <inline asm>:3:1: error: _start changed binding to STB_GLOBAL
  .global _start
  ^
  1 error generated.
```
Make sure only specify one between `.global _start` and `.weak _start`.
Remove `.global _start`.

From: Ammar Faizi <ammarfaizi2@gnuweeb.org>

On i386, the 6th argument of syscall goes in %ebp. However, both Clang
and GCC cannot use %ebp in the clobber list and in the "r" constraint
without using -fomit-frame-pointer. To make it always available for
any kind of compilation, the below workaround is implemented.

  1) Push the 6-th argument.
  2) Push %ebp.
  3) Load the 6-th argument from 4(%esp) to %ebp.
  4) Do the syscall (int $0x80).
  5) Pop %ebp (restore the old value of %ebp).
  6) Add %esp by 4 (undo the stack pointer).
