Hi,
I finally found some time to work on this and I think I figured out
why it fails. I run a very large history file (my HISTSIZE is set to
100000) and on this particular machine I'm at the limit. This causes
the os/signal test to run an average 6-7 seconds. The test timeout as
shown in my second email seems to be 5 seconds.
The easiest way I could find to disable history loading in the bash
shell is to set HISTFILE=/dev/null. This reduces the test duration to
~0.2 seconds from ~1.9 seconds. This is sufficient to pass the test:
------------8<--------------------
$ go test -run TestTerminalSignal # original
PASS
ok os/signal 1.923s
$ vi signal_cgo_test.go
$ go test -run TestTerminalSignal # with HISTFILE=/dev/null
PASS
ok os/signal 0.136s
$ git diff .
diff --git a/src/os/signal/signal_cgo_test.go b/src/os/signal/signal_cgo_test.go

If this is an acceptable solution I can prepare a PR on GitHub.
