check_deferred_signal() returns twice, since handle_signal() emulates
the return from the normal signal handler by sigreturn(2)ing the
passed context. Second return is performed on the destroyed stack
frame, because __fillcontextx() has already returned. This causes
undefined and bad behaviour, usually the victim thread gets SIGSEGV.
Avoid nested frame and the need to return from it by doing direct call
to getcontext() in the check_deferred_signal() and using a new private
libc helper __fillcontextx2() to complement the context with the
extended CPU state if the deferred signal is still present.
The __fillcontextx() is now unused, but is kept to allow older
libthr.so to be used with the new libc.
Mark __fillcontextx() as returning twice [1].

linked binaries to use fast gettimeofday(2) by forcing the linker to
resolve references and providing the neccessary functions.

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.

On i386 and amd64 do return the extended FPU states using
getcontextx(3). For other architectures, getcontextx(3) returns the
same information as getcontext(2).

profiling and kernel profiling. To enable kernel profiling one has to build
kgmon(8). I will enable the build once I managed to build and test powerpc
(32-bit) kernels with profiling support.
- add a powerpc64 PROF_PROLOGUE for _mcount.
- add macros to avoid adding the PROF_PROLOGUE in certain assembly entries.
- apply these macros where needed.
- add size information to the MCOUNT function.

working MI one. The MI one only needs to be overridden on machines
with non-IEEE754 arithmetic. (The last supported one was the VAX.)
It can also be overridden if someone comes up with a faster one that
actually passes the regression tests -- but this is harder than it sounds.
