I do wonder whether the signal handler needs to be enabled by default or 
whether there should simply be a function __mpx_handle_sigsegv provided 
with instructions to the user on how it can be used to get extra 
MPX-related information when SIGSEGV occurs (in which case it's entirely 
the user's responsibility to write a handler calling their own handler and 
the MPX one, if desired).  Or an LD_PRELOAD library like libSegFault.
