Bruce, I assume then that the MinGW environment is missing signal emulation that is present in the Microsoft C runtime distribution? Microsoft's is copyrighted, of course in winsig.c (it is actually quite small, just a couple hundred lines of code). Are you proposing to rewrite that part of the CRT? I checked the redistribution license and winsig,etc.c are most certainly not suitable for incorporation into an open source project.
