Oh, yes, if the existing generic bits/sigaction.h works for Hurd then
that's fine.  I thought there had to be something wrong with it,
because hurd/signal.h already includes signal.h which includes
bits/sigaction.h ... but now I realize that the problem is signal.h
doesn't _always_ include bits/sigaction.h.
