Re: libiberty/strsignal.c decl breaks with old Cygwin tool-chains

Because Cygwin uses the strsignal() implementation from libiberty.
libiberty/configure.in says:
# The Cygwin library actually uses a couple of files from
# libiberty when it is built. If we are building a native
# Cygwin, and we run the tests, we will appear to have these
# files. However, when we go on to build winsup, we will wind up
# with a library which does not have the files, since they should
# have come from libiberty.
# We handle this by removing the functions the winsup library
# provides from our shell variables, so that they appear to be
# missing.
