If q->sigtls is NULL, the signal is nevertheless waiting for being
handled.  It's just not directed at a specific thread.  Beats me, why
this didn't occur in my testing.  The process signal info should contain
the process-wide mask of pending signals as well, obviously, so the
following patch should do the right thing:

diff --git a/winsup/cygwin/sigproc.cc b/winsup/cygwin/sigproc.cc
index ce36c8be37fb..86e4e607ab7e 100644
--- a/winsup/cygwin/sigproc.cc
+++ b/winsup/cygwin/sigproc.cc
@@ -1375,7 +1375,8 @@ wait_sig (VOID *)
            *pack.mask = 0;
            while ((q = q->next))
              {
-               if (q->sigtls->sigmask & (bit = SIGTOMASK (q->si.si_signo)))
+               _cygtls *sigtls = q->sigtls ?: _main_tls;
+               if (sigtls->sigmask & (bit = SIGTOMASK (q->si.si_signo)))
                  {
                    tl_entry = cygheap->find_tls (q->si.si_signo, issig_wait);
                    if (tl_entry)

Can you confirm?


Thanks,
Corinna
