[PATCH] i386 regparm=3 RT signal handlers on x86_64

From: Albert Cahalan
Date: Sun Oct 29 2006 - 22:24:38 EST


The recent change to make x86_64 support i386 binaries compiled
with -mregparm=3 only covered signal handlers without SA_SIGINFO.
(the 3-arg "real-time" ones) This is useful for klibc at least.
