Old behaviour had been wrong. If you have several pending signals,
more than one sigframe should be built, as if the second, etc. had
been delivered right on the entry into the handler.

Stopping after the first one is obviously wrong - consider the case
when attempt to deliver it has raised SIGSEGV.
