i386 glibc is buggy and calls the sigaction syscall incorrectly. This is asymptomatic for normal programs, but it blows up on programs that do evil things with segmentation. The ldt_gdt self-test is an example of such an evil program. This doesn't appear to be a regression -- I think I just got lucky with the uninitialized memory that glibc threw at the kernel when I wrote the test. This hackish fix manually issues sigaction(2) syscalls to undo the damage. Without the fix, ldt_gdt_32 segfaults; with the fix, it passes for me.
