But we already did unwind through signal handlers.  It must be something
new your patch adds.  So likely the code in _dl_sysinfo_break, the
.altrp etc.  If a signal is received the thread is usually in a syscall
so we have to unwind through the signal handler frame, the sigreturn
stuff, and then the frame around the break instruction.  It must be the
step from sigreturn to _dl_sysinfo_break, everything else is the same.
