__builtin_setjmp/__builtin_longjmp is not documented at all.  You can probably
find a discussion in the archives or bugzilla about this.

The internal manual, section Machine Description.

Well, the SJLJ exception handling scheme is piggybacked on this support and has
worked for the past 2 decades.  And, until very recently, the Ada compiler was
using another exception handling scheme even more directly piggybacked on it
and which had worked for the past 2 decades too.
