As per the arm Procedure Call Standard for the Arm Architecture
section 6.1.2 [1], VFP registers s16-s31 (d8-d15, q4-q7) must be
preserved across subroutine calls.
The current setjmp/longjmp implementations preserve only the core
registers, with the jump buffer size too small to store the required
co-processor registers.
In accordance with the C Library ABI for the Arm Architecture
section 6.11 [2], this patch sets _JBTYPE to long long adjusting
_JBLEN to 20.
It also emits vfp load/store instructions depending on architectural
support, predicated at compile time on ACLE feature-test macros.

Pushed.
Would you mind writing a short entry for the top-level NEWS file, as
this is technically an ABI break. Just point out that the size and
alignment of jmp_buf has been changed to conform with the ABI and to fix
a bug with saving floating-point registers.

this breaks building with GCC 11 and older:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/891589#c7
i don't think it was intentional that this only work with GCC 12+, or if
it was, that we want such requirements. GCC 12 is less than a year old.

Dear Richard (now also CCing the mailing list),
One of the folks over at the Gentoo bug discussion inquired about
getting the patch back-ported to the latest source snapshot (where the
problem originally presented itself), newlib-4.3.0.20230120.
Is that an option at all?
Cheers,
Victor

Newlib doesn't maintain branches (we just tag the repo and make a
snapshot public based on that), so there's nowhere this can be
backported to.
Ultimately this is Jeff's (or Corinna's) call though.
