ENTRY	ARGS.

;USED BY SUBPROGRAM ENTRY POINTS
;  TO PICK UP BASE ADDRESSES OF ARGS PASSED TO THE ENTRY BY A CALL,
;  AND TO STORE THEM IN DUMMY ARG INDEX LOCATIONS

;CALLING SEQUENCE:
;	MOVEI	16,ARGLST
;	PUSHJ	17,ARGS.
;	<RETURN HERE>
;
;WITH ARGUMENT LIST AS FOLLOWS:
;	XWD	-(ARG-COUNT),0
;ARGLST: EXP	ADDR OF PTR TO ARGS PASSED BY CALL
;	EXP	ADDR OF LOC TO STORE BASE ADDR OF 1ST ARG
;	EXP	ADDR OF LOC TO STORE BASE ADDR OF 2ND ARG
;		...
;	EXP	ADDR OF LOC TO STORE BASE ADDR OF LAST ARG
;
;NOTE:  ARG-COUNT = NUMBER OF ARGS WANTED AT ENTRY PLUS 1 (FOR THE
;		   PTR TO THE ARGS PASSED TO THE ENTRY BY THE CALL)
