These are temporary changes.

I wanted to submit the patches while they applied, rather than let them 
languish, since I expect libstdc++-v3 will receive a lot of patches in 
the next few weeks as new platforms port to it.

Hopefully, I can make the gen-num-limits.cc #ifdef into somethin gother 
than __BEOS__ (like #ifdef SIGNAL_HANDLING_VERY_STUPID, I guess), so we 
can detect the platforms.

I should be able to make the _G_config.h change use a configure test as well.

I'm shooting to have these both happen in the next week.
