[PATCH] Add declaration of "kill" for SPU

[Ulrich Weigand]

Hello,

on the SPU, libgloss implements the kill function, but none of the newlib
header file provides a prototype for it.  This has been the case forever,
but as of recent GCC changes it now causes the SPU GCC build to fail.

This is because libgfortran uses a configure check to test for the presence
of "kill".  This will succeed since libgloss *does* have kill.  Since the
test succeeds, libgfortran now attempt to use kill.  But since the function
is not declared anywhere, this will result in a warning message.  And as
of a couple of weeks ago, libgfortran has switched to using -Werror, so
this causes the whole build to abort.

There are already two prototypes of kill in newlib header files, but both
are not active on SPU.  The one is in libc/sys/linux/sys/signal.h, which
isn't applicable on SPU anyway, and the other is in libc/include/sys/signal.h
under a #if defined(__CYGWIN__) || defined(__rtems__) block.

It does not really make sense to enable that whole block for SPU, since
it would enable a whole bunch of other functions that are in fact not
available on the SPU.

The patch below simply adds a new prototype for kill, for use simply
on SPU.  This fixes the GCC build breakage for me.

Bye,
Ulrich
