Remove SIGSEGV/SIGFPE etc. handling
Modern operating systems come with systemwide "crash catching"
facilities; for example, the Linux kernel can now pipe core dumps out
to userspace, and programs like "systemd-coredump" and "abrt" record
these.
In this model, it's actively counterproductive for individual
processes to catch SIGSEGV because:
1) Trying to unwind from inside the process after arbitrary
corruption is destined to fail.
2) It hides the fact that a crash happened at all - my OS test
framework wants to know if any process crashed, and I don't
want to guess by running regexps against /var/log/Xorg.0.log
or whatever.
