Thanks.  I remember :)

Your patch is definitely better from the perspective of keeping the code
maintainable, but it'd be good to know why it works.  Maybe because once
initialized, gettext is far less likely to call functions like mmap and
malloc?

Can you determine whether (with your patch) e.g., malloc is ever being
called from the signal handler?
