You're using jmp_buf as an exception throwing mechanism. I'd say it WOULD
make sense to have jmp_buf a global (or per-thread, yuck) variable, since
exceptions are global by nature.
It would be also more portable, unless the standard mandates that jmp_buf
is an array -- anyone happens to know if it does?
