Due to bad decisions made decades ago at AT&T, on SVR4 OS'es the signal() function resets the signal handler before calling the signal handler (equivalent to sigaction flag SA_RESETHAND). This is why the X server has a OsSignal() helper function in os/utils.c that uses the portable POSIX sigaction function to provide BSD/Linux semantics in a signal() style API, so we switch to use that in this test case, allowing it to pass on Solaris.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
