1ee3532451 Save and restore non-volatile floating-point registers during longjmp().
This should also save and restore non-volatile Altivec registers, but that
needs to wait on solving two problems:
1. Adding the nonvolatile vector registers means we need 5 more than _JBLEN
   entries in jmp_buf on 32-bit targets (64-bit is OK).
2. Need to figure out how to determine if saving/restoring vector regs
   is supported on the current CPU from userland.

ad9bbe9854 Ensure that every ENTRY(foo) has a matching END(foo).
It allows to build with newer binutils

88fe385600 Do not restore the register holding the TLS pointer when doing various
usermode context switches (long jumps and ucontext operations). If these
are used across threads, multiple threads can end up with the same TLS base.
Madness will then result.

This makes behavior on PPC match that on x86 systems and on Linux.
