Description Luis López Solé 2012-09-28 12:40:10 UTC 
psignal function has been replaced for kern_psignal function as you can see in http://svnweb.FreeBSD.org/base/head/sys/kern/kern_context.c?revision=225617&view=markup

In order to maximize the re-usability of kernel code in user space this
patch modifies makesyscalls.sh to prefix all of the non-compatibility
calls (e.g. not linux_, freebsd32_) with sys_ and updates the kernel
entry points and all places in the code that use them. It also
fixes an additional name space collision between the kernel function
psignal and the libc function of the same name by renaming the kernel
psignal kern_psignal(). By introducing this change now we will ease future
MFCs that change syscalls.
