With the current version signaltest + your test patch and 'taskset -c1'
the results looks good again, around 230us (running since 2 hours). I've
tested first without taskset and it took about an half hour to hit
350us. So pinning the threads on one CPU fixes it.

I think we change signaltest to use the correct affinity on
default. Also, I see that sigwaittest has some code for it, but it, but
it would be a good idea to set the defaults so that out of the box the
test does the right thing.

I'm sorry about dragging you into this problem.
