New description:
Currently, the Sage signal handling code does not handle stack overflows
gracefully. Fix this using `sigaltstack()`.
In fact, change the whole design of the signal handling to use GNU
Portable Threads which is quite natural once you see it. It immediately
also gives a much better solution to #12873.
