We should be consistent with other platforms -- having a look at e.g. the i386 (as it used to be the reference) and the alpha (as close-enough to MIPS) should reveal the answer. IIRC, a SIGSEGV that has a handler installed, but which cannot be callled due to a bad stack pointer is forced to SIG_DFL, but you may want to double-check it. Maciej
