This patch was necessary to get SEHs (and so Cygwin) working correctly
on Windows 2008 Server.  The new behaviour is covered by POSIX:

http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/signal.html

  "If and when the function returns, if the value of sig was SIGFPE,
   SIGILL, or SIGSEGV or any other implementation-defined value
   corresponding to a computational exception, the behavior is undefined.
   Otherwise, the program shall resume execution at the point it was
   interrupted."
