/* Under GNU/Linux, signal handler invocations can be identified by the
   designated code sequence that is used to return from a signal
   handler.  In particular, the return address of a signal handler
   points to the following sequence (the first instruction is quadword
   aligned):
  
   bis $30,$30,$16
   addq $31,0x67,$0
   call_pal callsys 
      
   Each instruction has a unique encoding, so we simply attempt to
   match the instruction the pc is pointing to with any of the above
   instructions.  If there is a hit, we know the offset to the start
   of the designated sequence and can then check whether we really are
   executing in a designated sequence.  If not, -1 is returned,
   otherwise the offset from the start of the desingated sequence is
   returned.
   
   There is a slight chance of false hits: code could jump into the
   middle of the designated sequence, in which case there is no
   guarantee that we are in the middle of a sigreturn syscall.  Don't
   think this will be a problem in praxis, though.  */
