I have never proposed "target_signal" to be a type as I find it a possible
parameter/variable name; although it is not in use now:
	grep -rP '(?<!enum )target_signal\b' .

Removing the misleading "target" word would be great, "gdb_target" even
suggests it is an in-GDB signal type, not a target-encoded signal type.
