I had the same problem.  I fixed it by extracting signal.o from the C library
and linking it by name:

	ar x /lilb/Llibc.a signal.o	# extract signal object file
	mv signal.o Lsignal.o		# rename: "Large" signal

...then add `Lsignal.o' to your ld (or final cc) command.

Note that it only worked for me when `Lsignal.o' was the _first_ object file
linked.
