libmain: Clarify the lack of initLibExpr()
Quote
Why not initLibExpr()? initGC() is essentially that, but
detectStackOverflow is not an instance of the init function concept, as
it may have to be invoked more than once per process.
Furthermore, renaming initGC to initLibExpr is more trouble than it's
worth at this time.
