x86: only single-step into signal handlers if the tracer
asked for it.


This reminds me of a problem I am seeing under recent -bk kernels.

Mozilla (FC2) will freeze (no screen redraws, etc.). 'ps xf' shows mozilla sleeping. If I strace the process, Mozilla will un-freeze and continue as expected.
