In trying to build the debian libsigsegv2 package, I found that

doesn't round ss.ss_sp.  The tests intentionally pass an unaligned
pointer.
This results in the two stack overflow tests failing.

The attached patch fixes this issue.

What about something like this (entirely untested, but you'll get the idea):

sp = round_down(current->sas_ss_sp + 64, 64);


We need to round up to ensure a full 64 bytes for frame marker.
I'll leave it to James to decide if it makes the code clearer.
