Building for sparc does this:
CC libc/sysdeps/linux/sparc/sigaction.os
libc/sysdeps/linux/sparc/sigaction.c: In function '__libc_sigaction':
libc/sysdeps/linux/sparc/sigaction.c:57: warning: passing argument 2 of
'rt_sigaction' makes integer from pointer without a cast
libc/sysdeps/linux/sparc/sigaction.c:57: warning: passing argument 3 of
'rt_sigaction' makes integer from pointer without a cast
libc/sysdeps/linux/sparc/sigaction.c: At top level:
libc/sysdeps/linux/sparc/sigaction.c:76: error: '__EI_sigaction' aliased to
undefined symbol '__GI_sigaction'
make: *** [libc/sysdeps/linux/sparc/sigaction.os] Error 1
git bisect says it was introduced by this:

Add a sigaction implementation for sparc

Here's a patch that makes it compile for me. I'm almost certain it's not the
RIGHT fix, it's just "taking what brk.c in the same directory seems to be doing
and throwing in one extra line because something in another file is calling
__libc_sigaction directly for some reason so do the the funky elf symbol
symlinking thing to get it to shut up".
When you tell me _why_ this patch is wrong, could somebody please explain why
brk.c does it differently, and why the C library is going out of its way to
only export weak symbols for something susv4 says it should define (and for
that matter, was in the version of posix released 22 years ago according to
the change history).

I do not understand this at _all_.
Thanks,
Rob
