+OPTION TYPE:
+ This configuration option is a boolean feature define.
+
+DEFAULT CONFIGURATION:
+ If this configuration option is undefined, then the described feature is not
+ enabled.
+
+DESCRIPTION:
+ In case this configuration option is defined, then the machine exception to
+ POSIX signal mapping is configured during system initialization.
+
+NOTES:
+ This device driver is responsible for setting up a mapping from machine
+ exceptions to POSIX signals so that applications may consume them and alter
+ task execution as necessary.
+
+ This is especially useful for applications written in Ada or C++.
