explain_raise_or_die - send a signal to the caller and report errors

Description

       The  explain_raise_or_die  function  is  used to call the raise(3) system call. On failure an explanation
       will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_raise(3) function, and then the  process  terminates
       by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

       The  explain_raise_on_error  function is used to call the raise(3) system call. On failure an explanation
       will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_raise(3) function, but still returns to the caller.

       sig     The sig, exactly as to be passed to the raise(3) system call.

Example

       The explain_raise_or_die function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
              explain_raise_or_die(sig);
