SIGINT *is* defined on <signal.h>, but if you use -ansi switch to DJGPP,
that definition is concealed from the compiler.  If you use -ansi, just
edit <signal.h> and move the definition of SIGINT before the #ifdndef
_STRICT_ANSI line (SIGINT is an ANSI signal and should be defined even if
-ansi is used;  this will be corrected in the next DJGPP release).  If you
don't use -ansi, SIGINT should be known by GCC, so maybe something else in
your program prevents it from recognizing it.
