[bug #24239] _NS_COUNT_HACK causes SIGBUS on NetBSD/AMD64

[Richard Frith-Macdonald]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #24239 (project gnustep):

Are you by some chance using an old version of the base library?

You say 'The effect here is that the uncought exception is not logged' ...
but that's not how it should be working.

The effect you should be seeing is:

1. exception is raised and NSCountFrames() is called
2. NSCountFrames sets signal handler
3. stack frames are counted to the point where SIGBUS is sent
4. signal handler catches signal and terminates frame count
5. NSCountFrames returns to the exception code
6. The exception is caught, or NSUncaughtExceptionhander is called.
