K 2.6 test6 strange signal behaviour

I have a problem with signals.

I get multiple signals from a single execution of the program.  I have
attached a stripped source.  Here is the critical snippet, you can see
the signal handler being set before each call:

	signal( SIGSEGV,	SignalHdl );
	signal( SIGBUS,		SignalHdl );
	fprintf( stderr, "Running \n" );
	result = func( eT, p );
	fprintf( stderr, "Finished \n" );
	signal( SIGSEGV,	SIG_DFL );
	signal( SIGBUS,		SIG_DFL );

When I run the code, that does 2 derefs of NULL you will see 2 instances
of "Running" and the handler is not invoked at all for the second time.

./solar:


Getting from NULL
Setting Jump
Running
Signal 11 caught
After jump
Setting to NULL
Setting Jump
Running
Segmentation fault

I am running debian version of K 2.6 test6.  This has occurred on all
versions of K2.6 though, not specific.
