Where exactly is it receiving the signal?
Beware of thread stacks, which may be in the heap; if the per-thread stack
size is too small, you will definitely see things like this and stack
allocation/extension in the SEGV handler (like, that struct rlimit) will
make it worse unless you use sigaltstack.
