OK, I've found the problem.  First two failures were harmless as klibc
doesn't have getpwnam so tilde expansion always fails.  The other one
was an off-by-one bug in my stpcpy code.

However, now I'm seeing bogus signal values being passed to my signal
handler.  I'm getting a signal value that's actually my PID.

I suspect this is somehow related to the sa_restorer code in klibc's
sigaction.  What's the i386 breakage that requires this sa_restorer
code? Does glibc do it as well?

Thanks,
