[PATCH] PPC enable Altivec for setjmp/longjmp part 1 of 5

It preserves the correct displacements for __saved_mask etc within the 
sigsetjmp variant of jmp_buf for the backward compatible implementation. 
It also provides externs to backward compatible variants of the code. 

It does not need to be a new source interface. Is there a suggested 
alternative as this definition is needed by several other files?

What is the point of <novmxsetjmp.h> et al? 
I don't see why new source interfaces are warranted.
