[issue20584] On FreeBSD, signal.NSIG is smaller than biggest signal value

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor added the comment:

The current implementation of _signal requires a limit on the number of signals to its internal array used to store Python callback:

static volatile struct {
    sig_atomic_t tripped;
    PyObject *func;
} Handlers[NSIG];

If you want to kill the arbitrary limit, you need to change this structure.

Maybe we need to find NSIG value differently on FreeBSD? For example try to use _SIG_MAXSIG.
