Yep, seen that now, but only with rt signals this gets copied at the 
very end of the signal context.

I'll have to double check my calculations to see where this will 
actually end up on the stack in either case.

I'll see whether the signal context is available on the stack even if 
the handler isn't passed that parameter.
