You can't.

Of course.  What do you expect to happen?  A SIGSEGV is an indication
that the instruction being executed can't complete.  Ignoring a
signal means going back and continuing with that instruction.  You'll
get the SIGSEGV again.

There are two things you can do with a SIGSEGV:

1.  Stop it from happening.  This is preferable.
2.  Add a signal handler which performs some alternative function.
    For example, you might print out some information about the state
    of the program before terminating.
