I don't think it does:

        bne     $5,signal_return
restore_all:
        RESTORE_ALL
        call_pal PAL_rti
[...]
signal_return:
        mov     $30,$17
        br      $1,do_switch_stack
        mov     $30,$18
        mov     $31,$16
        jsr     $26,do_signal
        bsr     $1,undo_switch_stack
        br      restore_all

That is, after do_signal we restore registers and return.

Unless you meant something else?
