Ok, things compile and the patches look reasonable. In signalcontext()
we probably want to remove the sp -= 16 statement. On ia64 this is
required because each function has 16 bytes of scratch space on the
stack (per the runtime specification). We don't need it on alpha.

Other than that I suggest we commit it, hook-up libkse to the build
and cross bridges when we come to them (ie we tweak and/or fix when
we can actually test the code). Thoughts?
