[PATCH] lib:util: Fix tfork return value if sigprocmask fails

Returning a non-zero value from a function with bool as return value is
the same as returning true. Change the return value to false if
sigprocmask or pthread_sigmask fails to indicate failure.

Detected with the help of cppcheck.

There are a couple of similar issues in the source3 directory, I wasn't sure
if this directory is in use and if it's worth fixing these as well?
