It's not just x86_64 -- it's also ia64, and this may change
depending on the version of glibc and linux sources, so... this really
isn't a viable solution IMO.
Does anyone have any better suggestions, apart from just using a
preprocessor macro that would execute rt_sig* via their non-rt
equivalents in ltp_signal.h?
