360 we use the sys_siglist supplied by the system, it is possible for
361 there to be more symbolic names than messages, or vice versa.

363 should check the size of the table (NSIG) before indexing it,
364 since new signal codes may be added to the system before they are
365 added to the table. Thus NSIG might be smaller than value
366 implied by the largest signo value defined in <signal.h>.

369 symbolic name or message.
