The sighandler_t problem that has been plaguing me has finally been
found.

I don't want to know who wrote it or when it was written, but the code
that caused all the trouble was this:

#ifdef __linux__
    sighandler_t previous_loc;
#else   // __linux__
    void *previous_loc;
#endif  // __linux__

It's going to be replaced with something like this:

#ifdef RETSIGTYPE
    RETSIGTYPE previous_loc;
#else
#error RETSIGTYPE not defined
#endif

This is part of my massive configure changes and *not* part of
anything being committed any time soon.  Once this works flawlessly on
the machines where it doesn't yet work, I'll post again about
committing it.  I regularly update the patched files, so if you're
participating in the tests, download a new file from my server every
day or two.

Thanks again!

Jack.
