The change is to set fs->signal_frame = 1 in signal frames in
pa32_fallback_frame_state.  This affects the determination as to whether
the IP is before or after the first not yet fully executed instruction
in a frame.  This feature was added in 2006 by Jakub Jelinek, but
pa32_fallback_frame_state was not changed.

This fixes unwinding in Ada (corner case).  It probably fixes corner
causes for other languages.  However, it breaks a number of Java testcases.
The problem is compensated for in the definition used for MAKE_THROW_FRAME
in libjava/include/pa-signal.h and hppa-signal.h.

The Ada testcase that exposed this problem is new for 4.5.

I'd hoped to bump the libgcc_s version so as to not break existing
applications, but that appears impossible.
