On NetBSD 10.0/i386, one of the 'sigsegv' tests crashes:
FAIL: test-sigsegv-catch-stackoverflow1
=======================================
FAIL test-sigsegv-catch-stackoverflow1 (exit status: 139)
More precisely, it crashes inside _rtld_bind, when
stackoverflow_handler_continuation invokes longjmp.
The crash is reproducible in a testdir of all gnulib modules,
but not in a testdir of the 'sigsegv' module alone.
I've found two possible workarounds:
- Align the stack pointer before invoking longjmp.
- Ensure that resolving the 'longjmp' symbol is already done
in main(), through
if (setjmp (mainloop) == 0)
longjmp (mainloop, 1);
The former is the more proper fix. So, that is what I'm applying:

pointer before calling longjmp.
