* XXX: the following check is used to set the status code only on RECEIVE.
* SENDREC is not currently atomic for user processes. A process can return
* from SENDREC in a different context than the original when a Posix signal
* handler gets executed. For this reason, it is not safe to manipulate
* the context (i.e. registers) when a process is blocked on a SENDREC.
* Unfortunately, avoiding setting the status code for SENDREC doesn't solve
* the problem entirely because in rare situations it is still necessary to
* override retreg dynamically (and possibly in a different context).
* A possible reliable solution is to improve our Posix signal handling
* implementation and guarantee SENDREC atomicity w.r.t. the process context.
