Might happen, if the frame gap isn't actually equal to the exception 
frame extra size anymore? Aligning the start of the signal frame to the 
next lower quadword boundary increases the gap size.

When setting up the sigframe, the extra is copied to the correct 
location (right past struct sigframe, or into uc_filler). When moving 
that exception frame into place, the assumption is that the gap is the 
extra size, not more.

I'll try dropping the quadword alignment constraint - the return 
trampoline still ought to remain longword aligned.

Cheers,
