on arm, the location of the saved-signal-mask flag and mask were off
by one between sigsetjmp and siglongjmp, causing incorrect behavior
restoring the signal mask. this is because the siglongjmp code assumed
an extra slot was in the non-sig jmp_buf for the flag, but arm did not
have this. now, the extra slot is removed for all archs since it was
useless.
also, arm eabi requires jmp_buf to have 8-byte alignment. we achieve
that using long long as the type rather than with non-portable gcc
attribute tags.

if saved, signal mask would not be restored unless some low signals
were masked. if not saved, signal mask could be wrongly restored to
uninitialized values. in any, wrong mask would be restored.
i believe this function was written for a very old version of the
jmp_buf structure which did not contain a final 0 field for
compatibility with siglongjmp, and never updated...

sadly the C language does not specify any such implicit conversion, so
this is not a matter of just fixing warnings (as gcc treats it) but
actual errors. i would like to revisit a number of these changes and
possibly revise the types used to reduce the number of casts required.
