commit aa497d4352414aad22e792b35d0aaaa12bbc37c5 upstream.

The setjmp function should be declared as "returns_twice", or bad
things can happen[1]. This does not actually change generated code in
my testing.

The longjmp function should be declared as "noreturn", so that the
compiler can optimise calls to it better. This makes the generated
code a little shorter.
