configure revisions to autodetect USE_POSIX_SIGNALS
I have just checked into the main-branch CVS tree some revisions
to allow autoconf to decide whether the system has POSIX signals
or not, rather than relying on the platform os.h file to tell us.
This seems to be the only reasonable way to support all the
different versions of HPUX correctly.
I would like to check this into the 6.4 branch for 6.4.1, but
I'm afraid Marc will break my thumbs if I just do that without
any outside testing ;-). Please let me know whether this works
OK on your platform.

Configure related changes, for the most part, do not bother me
along the Release branch...only something that will actually affect the
backend server does...
