I reviewed the sendsig() in RELENG_6 for AMD64, the si_addr is not set,
but is set in i386 version of sendsig(), the originator's patch is wrong,
it copied some code from HEAD which is not valid for RELENG_6, the
HEAD has fully working siginfo_t in kernel while RELENG_6 does not, 
the patch should be changed to:

> +		sf.sf_si.si_addr = regs->tf_addr;
