SCO 3.2v4.2 and OpenSSH -current --> connection hangs and does no t close

[Ben Lindstrom]

 - (bal) redo how we handle 'mysignal()'.  Move it to
   openbsd-compat/bsd-misc.c, s/mysignal/signal/ and #define signal to
   be our 'mysignal' by default.  OK djm@

go into bsd-misc.c and comment out the define and try it again.  We should
be using mysignal by default now, but it may have disagreeable results.
