I too was pressed for time and what I did was to  dig up the source for a program
which uses signals and cut paste the include files to FSConServ.c .

I played a little with gcc -E which displays the processing of the include files and
took a brief look at signa.h and saw the check for  _P1003_1B_VISIBLE...

This is all academic since the proper fix was posted to the list.
