Nitpick: maybe a shorter name like __SIGINFO_VOIDPTR (or VOID_PTR).

I'll discuss this further in a subsequent patch. I assume here you'll
enforce the alignment via the __SIGINFO_VOIDPOINTER definition. The
alternative would be another macro for structure attributes.

SIGEV_PAD_SIZE would be the same with ILP32 because sizeof(sigval_t)
would not change. So I think that's fine.

Would the default not work? The sigset_t structure ends up with the same
number of bits between LP64 and ILP32, whether you patch it or not.

Same comment here about the need for attributes (to clarify in
subsequent patch).
