352 Returns the maximum signo value for which a corresponding symbolic

354 we use the sys_siglist supplied by the system, it is possible for
355 there to be more symbolic names than messages, or vice versa.
356 In fact, the manual page for psignal(3b) explicitly warns that one
357 should check the size of the table (NSIG) before indexing it,
358 since new signal codes may be added to the system before they are
359 added to the table. Thus NSIG might be smaller than value
360 implied by the largest signo value defined in <signal.h>.
362 We return the maximum value that can be used to obtain a meaningful
363 symbolic name or message.
