Re-add logic to start 'Standalone Programs'.  Although the code was
lifted from a previous code base, I'm not so sure anymore if we handle
'autostart' here correctly.  The DULG has no mention of this specific
handling.  On the other hand I know that this was "creatively misused"
to allow for decompression of data blobs - therefore I left it in
currently.

En passant, we introduce error checking for unsupported os types,
where the previous code happily jumped to a relocated NULL pointer ;)
