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).
