This is the same patch from yesterday to fix the signal handler race
condition. We block signals before doing a fork(), and then in the child
reset all signal handlers before finally unblocking all signals. The
parent will restore its original signal mask after fork. I've fixed the
incorrect return code check on pthread_sigmask() and iterate from 1
instead of 0. I'll switch to pid_t later, since that'll involve changing
all callers too.
In the internal.h file I also #define pthread_sigmask to sigprocmask
for scenarios where we don't have pthread - as per other usage. This
exposed a bug in remote_protocol.c file where it was not including
the config.h file, hence that change here too
