That seems to be about right -- I actually put an assert in the
offending code within _gst_set_signal_handler() to ensure the
o_act argument is always non-null.. I rebuild and reran the test code
and it still fails but not on the assert -- which never triggered.

I'll look some more.. to see what is causing this.. It's hard to
tell without a stackdump..
