Removing the entry without fixing the pending set is the bug we're trying
to fix.  That's what it does now, and it's wrong.

Oleg had a patch that marked the sigqueue entry with whether it was on the
shared queue or not.  The caller in timer_delete knows which thread it is
when it's on a thread queue, and whether it's on the shared queue.  So it
could be the caller's responsibility to know, i.e. its sigqueue_free call
matches its send_sigqueue call.


Thanks,
Roland
