This fixes constantly replaying the exception if we have a segfault

(I'm tempted to remove the 'debugging' static from exception::handle()
and everything associated with it, since replaying the exception the
next half a million times it's hit seems really weird)
(This would seem to make try_to_debug() less useful, as it then does
nothing if you're just run under gdb, but it's what the code used to
do...)

Otherwise, LGTM. Please push.
The patch fixes the problem. The infinite loop does not longer occur. If
a signal handler is present, it works again if run from strace. Same if
run from gdb.
Thanks very much for testing!
