I would say that you would initially signal safety. I think this is no different than giving the TD signal on a run that ends up being called back on a holding call. Additionally, I think that in about 99% of the situations that result in the offended team having options the options should be given. This one included. What if the B is down be 6 points...the safety and even a free kick FG attempt following the succeding kick-off doesn't cut the difference so B may be sold out to trying to block the kick (This example obviously highlights that fact that there is little time on the clock and that A should have been trying to take a legal safety in the first place, but does show the importance of giving choices.).
