unlike the previous definition, NSIG/_NSIG is supposed to be one more
than the highest signal number. adding this will allow simplifying
libc-internal code that makes signal-related syscalls, which can be
done as a later step. some apps might use it too; while this usage is
questionable, it's at least not insane.
also handle the non-GNUC case where alignment attribute is not available
by simply omitting it. this will not cause problems except for
inclusion of mcontex_t/ucontext_t in application-defined structures,
since the natural alignment of the uc_mcontext member relative to the
start of ucontext_t is already correct. and shame on whoever designed
this for making it impossible to satisfy the ABI requirements without
GNUC extensions.
apparently some other archs have sys/io.h and should not break just
because they don't have the x86 port io functions. provide a blank
bits/io.h everywhere for now.
incomplete but at least partly working. requires all files to be
compiled in the new "secure" plt model, not the old one that put plt
code in the data segment. TLS is untested but may work. invoking the
dynamic linker explicitly to load a program does not yet handle argv
correctly.
