Cygwin: signal: Increase chance of handling signal in main thread
If the process() fails and the signal remains in the queue, the most
possible reason is that the target thread is already armed by another
signal and does not handle it yet. With this patch, to increase the
chance of handling it in the other threads, call yield() before
retrying process().
