Description Tom Tromey 2012-08-22 01:55:51 UTC 
Currently a backtrace will just print this for a signal delivery:

#3  <signal handler called>

gdb often knows the signal here, so it should display it.

If you look at the backtrace here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=849588
Direct link:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=605630

... you can see a case where the signal is not evident in the bt.
The bt output makes it look like the signal calls quit_force directly.
