This is both 2.6.20 and -stable material.
Use the same signal frame alignment calculations as the underlying
architecture. x86_64 appeared to do this, but the "- 8" was really
subtracting 8 * sizeof(struct rt_sigframe) rather than 8 bytes.
UML/i386 might have been OK, but I changed the calculation to match
i386 just to be sure.
