A signal can arrive in the middle of a malloc, and Emacs's signal handler can invoke strsignal, which can invoke malloc, which is not portable. This race condition bug makes Emacs hang on GNU/Linux. Fix it by altering the signal handler so that it does not invoke strsignal. * emacs.c (shut_down_emacs): Use safe_strsignal, not strsignal. * process.c (status_message): Use const pointer, in case strsignal is #defined to safe_strsignal. * sysdep.c (sys_siglist, init_signals): Always define and initialize a substitute sys_siglist if the system does not define one, even if HAVE_STRSIGNAL. (safe_strsignal): Rename from strsignal. Always define, using sys_siglist. Return a const pointer. * syssignal.h (safe_strsignal): New decl. (strsignal) [!HAVE_STRSIGNAL]: Define in terms of safe_strsignal.
