When sigchild handler is enabled it is no longer possible to 
accurately gauge the return code of an external command.

Description:
------------
PHP's sigchild handler clobbers returns from the mail() function. This
is similar to bug #8992/#28294.

Compiling PHP without --enable-sigchild makes mail() work as expected.

And as a side note, what is the point of the sigchild handler? Surely
it's better to signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_IGN) if you don't care about the
return status of your children? Is it still needed if you're compiling
--with-oci8 for recent versions of the OCI libraries?
