Subject[PATCH] SIGURG incorrectly delivered to process

If a process is sent a SIGURG signal and it is blocking SIGURG
signals, when the process subsequently unblocks SIGURG signals it will
be terminated even if it is set to the default action (SIG_DFL) which
is specified by SUSv3 to ignore that signal.

The following patch fixes the problem:

continue;

switch (signr) {
- case SIGCONT: case SIGCHLD: case SIGWINCH:
+ case SIGCONT: case SIGCHLD: case SIGWINCH: case SIGURG:
continue;

case SIGTSTP: case SIGTTIN: case SIGTTOU:
A quick browse of the other architectures indicates that most (if not
all) of them also need the same fix applied to their arch specific
signal.c files.
