s390 not supported for scm

scm, the scheme system by Aubrey Jaffer, does not support s390
upstream.  Undoubtedly, the problem is with the generic implementation
of call-with-current-continuation.

Porting scm is not trivial, and requires someone who understands the
Scheme semantics of call/cc and is an expert on the stack and register
structure of the architecture.

Aubrey would gladly work with people who know the architecture, but
cannot do the work himself.  If the s390 porting team is willing to
help out, please let Aubrey or me know.
