    Fix race in tst-mqueue5
    
    The check is done on line 117 by a thread spawned
    from do_child(), forked from do_test().  This test
    generates a signal in the forked process.
    
    Either thread may handle the signal, and on ppc,
    it happens to be done on do_child, on the thread
    which is not doing the check on line 117.
    
    This exposes a race condition whereby the test
    incorrectly fails as the signal is caught during
    or after the check.
    
    This is mitigated by ensuring the signal is blocked
    in the child thread while thread is running.
