Not so.  The ucontext is now much larger and has some things in different
places.  The larger ucontext would cause problems if anything copies around
ucontexts and expects this to preserve them.  Things in different places
would cause problems if anything accesses them.  cvsupd apparently does
some of these things.  ISTR that the modula runtime knows a lot about
the contexts, and that this caused problems the last time signal context
were changed.
