Haven�t tested this on other OSes. I created a new signal.c file for the test case under ntdll/tests since I couldn�t find more fitting place.

Hi and welcome to wine development!

First i see is that your mail application wrapped the patch ( that is when long likes brake down into the next line ).
Then you have a whitespace issue in the makefile i think...
further you should consider using IsBadReadPtr instead of try...except, but i'm not sure if that would work.

If you solved the issues, you can send the patch to wine-patches at winehq.org and can track the status at source.winehq.org/patches
