The setjmp() function doesn't specify whether signal masks are saved and
restored; on Linux they are not, but on BSD (including MacOSX) they are.
We want to have consistent behaviour across platforms, so we should
always use "don't save/restore signal mask" (this is also generally
going to be faster). This also works around a bug in MacOSX where the
signal-restoration on longjmp() affects the signal mask for a completely
different thread, not just the mask for the thread which did the longjmp.
The most visible effect of this was that ctrl-C was ignored on MacOSX
because the CPU thread did a longjmp which resulted in its signal mask
being applied to every thread, so that all threads had SIGINT and SIGTERM
blocked.
The POSIX-sanctioned portable way to do a jump without affecting signal
masks is to siglongjmp() to a sigjmp_buf which was created by calling
sigsetjmp() with a zero savemask parameter, so change all uses of
setjmp()/longjmp() accordingly. [Technically POSIX allows sigsetjmp(buf, 0)
to save the signal mask; however the following siglongjmp() must not
restore the signal mask, so the pair can be effectively considered as
"sigjmp/longjmp which don't touch the mask".]
For Windows we provide a trivial sigsetjmp/siglongjmp in terms of
setjmp/longjmp -- this is OK because no user will ever pass a non-zero
savemask.
The setjmp() uses in tests/tcg/test-i386.c and tests/tcg/linux-test.c
are left untouched because these are self-contained singlethreaded
test programs intended to be run under QEMU's Linux emulation, so they
have neither the portability nor the multithreading issues to deal with.

Use the POSIX-specified stack_t type as the argument to sigaltstack()
rather than the legacy struct sigaltstack. This allows us to compile
on MacOSX with --with-coroutine=sigaltstack.

Use pthread_kill instead of process-wide kill to invoke the signal
handler used for stack switching. This may fix spurious lock-ups with
this backend, easily triggerable by extending the time window between
kill and sigsuspend.

These were identified using: http://github.com/lyda/misspell-check

This file is based in both coroutine-ucontext.c and
pth_mctx.c (from the GNU Portable Threads library).
The mechanism used to change stacks is the sigaltstack
function (variant 2 of the pth library).

thread storage (CoroutineThreadState).
