Great. Thanks. I'm preparing an updated version that will clean it up
a bit, but the heart part of architectures providing setjmp/longjmp/initjmp
will stay the same.

Small request:
  If you implement initjmp, could you have it save into jmp_buf a frame
  pointer value of NULL if applicable? That way, should backtrace be
  implemented (or done via JTAG), they have a defined end.

Cheers,
Ahmad
