You may be able to use the third argument to the signal handler:
given a handler declared as (int n, siginfo_t *info,struct ucontext *context),
look at context->uc_mcontext.sc_traparg_a0 

SBCL has been doing this for a few months now and nobody has yet
complained that it's broken for them.  Look for arch_get_bad_addr 
in http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/sbcl/sbcl/src/runtime/alpha-arch.c?rev=1.14&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
