[patch] sigfix-2.5.40-B1

[Ingo Molnar]

this patch (ontop of the previous signal patch) fixes one more
thread-signals testcase. POSIX treats threads in sigwait() as a special
thing - eg. the 'action' of a signal must not be considered for a thread
that is in sigwait(). Ie. if no handler is defined and the only thread
accepting a given signal is one in sigwait(), then the signal must be
queued to that signal.

this should fix Axel Zeuner's sigwait() testcase.
