 too late to do anything"

 That's actually what `sigaltstack` is for, it allocates a stack just for
 handling the signal. But yeah, raising from there is likely to fail.

 And I also agree that it's not a critical issue at all, I just wanted to
 update the status of the bug so that people know why it's not fixed yet
 :-)
