Possibly, but probably no more broken than it already is if it uses that
routine. How can the compiler know to restore registers it doesn't even
know about? The EABI has been carefully constructed to ensure that it
needed care; but builtin_setjmp breaks that assumption.
The ultimate solution will be to convert the ARM port to use the EABI
exception unwinding model, then most of this should be irrelevant from
that point of view.
