[commit] Use -e instead of --entry for as in testsuite

[Mark Kettenis]

This is much more portable

I threatened to put this in a long, long time ago, and nobody
objected.  Finially did it.

Is this more portable to any one system, in particular?  If so could
you write down in the test which one?

No system in particular.  Quite a few linkers have the -e option,
including Solaris, HP-UX, IRIX and of course GNU ld.  The --entry
option is really specific to GNU ld (but really old versions seem to
lack it too).
