I think this is a bit peculiar in a couple of ways.

SIGSWI has the same value as SIGRTMIN.
So there is some confusion somewhere.
At the very least, it seems like if this is correct, then we maybe
couldn't sensible translate SIGSWI.

Second, the new enum seems like dead code.  It's only a matter of time
until someone notices and removes it.  Perhaps a comment somewhere would
be better.
