Hi, As the maintainer of webruby(https://github.com/xxuejie/webruby), I need setjmp to work in order to port webruby to the new compiler.
However, another thing occurs to me is that with the new compiler, this bug still exists: https://gist.github.com/xxuejie/5574172. In the old compiler, the workaround of this is to use the old "i386-pc-linux-gnu" target. Since the NaCl team has little interest( https://code.google.com/p/nativeclient/issues/detail?id=2381) of fixing this, my question is: is there a way that we can fix this in the compiler level? Or should I try to fix this in the mruby source code? Thanks for all the hard work!
