Again, I'm not too warm on this.

Remember, the idea is for autoconf to perform a feature based test: is 
feature XYZ supported?  In the case of the above, the feature question 
is: does the system have a useable sigsetjmp()?  Unfortunatly, the test 
currently asks: does the system have anything looking like sigsetjmp(), 
working or not? :-)  I think Keith's original patch is the correct fix. 
  It refines the test so that, for cygwin, it reports back ``no 
sigsetjmp()'' is not there (or is broken).
