No, this is not consumable.

I need a self-contained minimal example written in C/asm.
If this is too hard to produce, give the the self-contained
binary, again as small as possible (small by comparing the
number of syscalls before the issue manifests itself).

As the absolute minimum I could start with the output on ctty
with machdep.uprintf_signal=1, but it is only for beginning.
