 *
 * Return a string identifying the given Unix signal number.
 *
 * The result is declared "const char *" because callers should not
 * modify the string.  Note, however, that POSIX does not promise that
 * the string will remain valid across later calls to strsignal().
 *
 * This version guarantees to return a non-NULL pointer, although
 * some platforms' versions of strsignal() reputedly do not.
 *
 * Note that the fallback cases just return constant strings such as
 * "unrecognized signal".  Project style is for callers to print the
 * numeric signal value along with the result of this function, so
 * there's no need to work harder than that.
