DESCRIPTION
       The  psignal()  and  psiginfo()	functions produce messages on the standard error output describing a signal.  The sig argument is a signal
       that may have been  passed as the first argument to a signal handler.  The pinfo argument is a pointer to a siginfo structure that may have
       been  passed as the second argument to an enhanced signal handler.  See sigaction(2). The argument string s is printed first, followed by a
       colon and a blank, followed by the message and a NEWLINE character.

USAGE
       Messages printed from these functions are in the native language specified by the LC_MESSAGES locale category.  See setlocale(3C).
