>Description:
Hitting CTRL-C in debugger to break Xorg does not have
any effect.

Note well:

 - happens only when starting the X server from GDB,
   not if the process is attached later.

 - Sending a "killall -INT X" wakes up GDB correctly

 - The X server traps signals for cleanup.  Disabling
   the SIGINT handler in the code does not fix the
   reported problem.
