Description Andy Lutomirski 2013-06-03 22:39:45 UTC 
The ucontext struct in a signal frame has all kinds of useful (target-specific) information.  A lot of it shows up in "info regs", but some is missing.  For example, on x86, cr2 and err can be quite useful.  Please expose it somehow (perhaps with a magic variable $_sigcontext).
