I don't know of any functions that are specifically unsafe around
setjmp()/longjmp().

The right way to think about setjmp()/longjmp() is as a save/restore of the
processor's register state, including  the stack and frame pointers.  It
doesn't have the concurrency issues that threads do because it doesn't
alter static memory or the heap.
