Yes, and Jens is here to port it to the s390 :-)

Currently Peter Zijlstra and I are updating the deferred unwinder. Jens is
working on getting sframes to work with it. His interest is getting it for
s390 whereas ours is for x86.

Yes we should definitely have selftests. But we are far from getting there.
One requirement is that the toolchain used to build the test must support
adding sframes.
