Note that you never really *need* sigsetjmp/siglongjmp, since you
can always replace with setjmp/longjmp or _setjmp/_longjmp according
to the 'save signal mask' argument to sigsetjmp. However, since we
just had this on the PMAX port I've done a first cut of a VAX
implementation. Since I don't know anything about VAX assembly
language, someone should check these out, but they *do* pass the
regression test, for whatever that's worth.
I'm quite unsure about how the stack frame handling works - my guess
is that sigsetjmp can do the maximum save from setjmp /_setjmp
(max[R6,0] = R6), then jump directly into the routines.
There is probably a nicer way to express this direct jump than my
jmp _setjmp+2
hack, too...
