[Bug libc/888] New: The function timer_getoverrun() fails (segv) when passed the timer_id from the sig_info block.

["george at mvista dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla at sources dot redhat dot com>]

Details:
If we define a signal handler for posix timers:
void handler1(int signo, siginfo_t *info, void *context)

then, according to the standard if info->si_code == SI_TIMER we should find the
timer_id at info->i_tid.  Thus calling:

timer_getoverrun(info->i_tid);  

should work.  Infact, we get a program abort (segv) from timer_getoverrun().

(I am not sure if this is part of libc or nptl.  It is really librt but that is
not one of the "Component" options.)
