VFP used to use force_sig_info(), but it seems to be really the wrong
call to use.  force_sig_info() checks whether the program decided to
ignore or block the signal, and if it did, replaces the signal handler
with the default handler and unblocks the signal.

Are you really suggesting that FP all FP signals should get this
treatment?
