> Issue #8407: The signal handler writes the signal number as a single byte

Wakeup test using two pending signals fails on FreeBSD 6.4 buildbot:

======================================================================
FAIL: test_signum (test.test_signal.WakeupSignalTests)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/home/db3l/buildarea/3.x.bolen-freebsd/build/Lib/test/test_signal.py", line 266, in test_signum

AssertionError: Sequences differ: (14,) != (30, 14)

Wakeup file only contains SIGALRM, not (SIGUSR1, SIGALRM), whereas SIGUSR1 is raised before SIGALRM.
