I can see the arguments from both sides -- localise the warts to
configure.in or push them out into the platform-specific file.
One must keep in mind the traditional approach used by Autoconf for
situations like this: write a test that *detects* whether
sig{set,long}jmp are broken.
The current proposals suffer the problem that GDB and Cygwin versions
will have to follow in lock-step because GDB's configury will assume
that sig{set,long}jmp is either present or absent for Cygwin hosts.
This will not be true once (if?) Cygwin is fixed and there are two
"strains" :-) out there -- those that are fixed and those that are
not.
