This patch solve a bug triggered by execvp (this function use calloc to
store the argument list and gcc 3.4.x align the stack to word, not to dword).
This situation aren't related to signal handling and all 2.6.x have the bug.
On ColdFire targets we must force the stack to be aligned.

Original patch from Andrea Tarani <andrea.tarani@gilbarco.com>,
