It needs more than that. Checksignals is only defined on x86, so the
kernel will not build on other architectures. It looks like this is
just a debugging stub, but what do I know? I just defined an empty
checksignals function for Alpha -- the x86 code did not work and I don't
know the first thing about the kernel... :)

Thanks
