* record.c (record_resume): Change "siggnal" to "signal".
FYI, a number of places in the code use "siggnal" for the variable name,
or some other name that is not "signal". Once upon a time some hosts
did nasty macro tricks with "signal" in their system headers, so it was
better for portability to use some other string. I don't know if this
is still an issue though.
I always thought that the name "siggnal" started with a global
variable in gdb, and then just propagated (the way it's trying
to do now). ;-)
