[patch] tst-vfork-longjmp failure

test/setjmp/tst-vfork-longjmp.c relies on the value of automatic local 
variables modified between setjmp and longjmp. This is explicitly not allowed 
by ISO C. The compiler eliminates the ++cnt and turns the test into an 
infinite loop.

Patch below fixes this by making these variables static.
