Hi folks,

It looks like strsignal is busted.  All I have to do is hit ctrl-c while
running gmake and I get this core:

#0  strsignal (num=2) at /usr/src/lib/libc/string/strsignal.c:96
        ebuf = "Interrupt", '\0' <repeats 2038 times>
        tmp = "2\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\002\000\000\000\000\000\000
\000\000\000\000"
        signum = 0
        n = 4326031
        t = 0x7fffffffd151 ""
        p = 0x800d5b82f <Address 0x800d5b82f out of bounds>

This is because n is uninitialized when num > 0 && num < sys_nsig.

Cheers,
Sean
