 Yes this is bit of an odd situation.
 the loader is linked 32bit but userboot.so / libstand is built 64bit
 but pulls in the 32bit ficl lib.
 The 64bit libstand provides the setjmp call that needs 96 bytes
 of space but since ficl is built with the 32bit jump_buf (48 byte )
 structure
 things go sideways.
 
 I'm not sure the right overall fix is here.
 I figured I would file the bug and see if anybody more
 familiar with the loader/userboot build has any ideas.
 
 The patch I posted fixes the issue with the forth interpreter crashing
 when running under userboot.so, but yes it does break loader build.
