Just signal. For some reason SIGSEGV seems to work correctly unless
it's trapped. I really don't understand why.
I've already checked in a patch to fix it. It was an extremely simple
fix.
This will affect people trying to configure libstdc++. I don't know
how many other programs trap things like SIGSEGV and SIGFPE.
