Tom Lane 0f19d0f12f Remove long-dead support for platforms without sig_atomic_t. 
C89 requires <signal.h> to define sig_atomic_t, and there is no evidence
in the buildfarm that any supported platforms don't comply.  Remove the
configure test to stop wasting build cycles on a purely historical issue.
(Once upon a time, we cared about supporting C89-compliant compilers on
machines with pre-C89 system headers, but that use-case has been dead for
quite a few years.)

I have some other fixes planned in this area, but let's start with this
to see if the buildfarm produces any surprising results.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
