Regardless of this patch, it is always possible to send signals directly to the target process. This is only about signals generated by the terminal.
Suppose you are debugging a program that does something in response to ^C: you will have to use kill in a different terminal to send the signal to the target process, because pressing ^C will send a signal to both debugserver and the target process, causing debugserver to die in response. I think it should be possible to set up the target process so that it has full control of its terminal, as it would be if it had been run outside of a debugger.
