-Subject: [PATCH] strace: Fix build with mips/mips64 on musl
-
-SIGEMT is not defined everywhere e.g musl does
-not define it. Therefore check it being defined
-before using it.
-
-Fixes errors e.g.
-../../strace-4.13/tests/signal2name.c:45:7: error: 'SIGEMT' undeclared (first use in this function)
