Personally I agree very much, and I like the intent.

But I am not sure we need WTERMSIG/WCOREDUMP helpers, although
I won't really argue.

OTOH, I think it would be nice to add the name for 0x80 and
change coredump_finish().

And if we do not add WTERMSIG(), then perhaps we can turn other
0x7f's into WTERMSIG_MASK?
