not save (restore) the global pointer (GP) in the jmpbuf in setjmp
(longjmp) because it's not needed in general. GP is considered a
scratch register at callsites and hence is always restored after a
call (when it's possible that the call resolves to a symbol in a
different loadmodule; otherwise GP does not have to be saved and
restored at all), including calls to setjmp/longjmp. There's just
one problem with this now that we use setjmp/longjmp for context
switching: A new context must have GP defined properly for the
thread's entry point. This means that we need to put GP in the
jmpbuf and consequently that we have to restore is in longjmp.
This automaticly requires us to save it as well.
When setjmp/longjmp isn't used for context switching, this can be
reverted again.
the J_SIG0 field. While here, rename J_SIG0 to J_SIGSET and
remove J_SIG1. The main reason for this change is that the
128-bit sigset_t is now aligned on a 16-byte boundary, which
allows us to use 16-byte atomic loads and stores on CPUs that
support it. The removal of J_SIG1 is done to avoid confusion:
it is never accessed and should not be. Renaming J_SIG0 to
J_SIGSET is the icing on the cake that's better done now than
later.

seed->first value correlation. It breaks rand_r()... Other possible methods
like shuffling inside aray will breaks rand_r() too, because it assumes
only one word state, i.e. nothing extra can be added after seed assignment
in srand().
BTW, for old formulae seed->first value correlation is not so monotonically
increased as with other Linear Congruential Generators of this type only
becase arithmetic overflow happens. But overflow affects distribution
and lower bits very badly, as many articles says, such type of overflow
not improves PRNG.
So, monotonically increased seed->first value correlation problem remains...
