I believe __sigemptyset() should never have been used, it looks like an
internal function. sigemptyset() should have been used instead, and is
in fact used elsewhere in gpm:

$ grep -r sigemptyset *
src/lib/liblow.c:  sigemptyset (&new_sigset);
src/lib/liblow.c:  sigemptyset(&sa.sa_mask);
src/lib/liblow.c:      sigemptyset(&sa.sa_mask);
src/prog/gpm-root.y:   __sigemptyset(&childaction.sa_mask);

You can find some glibc 2.26 fixes for gpm at
http://lfs.phayoune.org/blfs/downloads/8.1/patches/gpm-1.20.7-glibc_2.26-1.patch.
We will probably want something more fine grained, i.e one patch per
change.
