Starting with glibc 2.27.9000-xxx, sigaddset() can return EINVAL for some
reserved signal numbers between 1 and NSIG. The range(1, NSIG) idiom
is commonly used to select all signals for blocking with pthread_sigmask.
So we ignore the sigaddset() return value until we expose sigfillset()
to provide a better idiom.
(cherry picked from commit 25038ec)
