Re: [rfa] Attach vsyscall support for GNU/Linux



But there's another reason why I'm against this patch.  It changes the
order of the unwinders for all the other i386 targets too.  Please
find a way to do this such that it affect Linux only.

Sorry, I didn't realize this before...

I'd not get too hung up on this one. The current frame-unwind code sniff heuristic came about because it ``worked for me''. We're going to have to eventually replace it with something more complicated and until then, what ever.


Sniffing a signal frame definitly takes higher priority than sniffing a normal frame.

OK, if the rest of the patch reaches consensus I will try to figure out
how to do this.  It will probably just require conditional action based
on the osabi enum.  Not hard.
