I hope that a healthy balance will be found between correct software
design, development and quick "hacking". There might also be more
efforts if too many patches will be rejected just because the suggested
and planned changes were not discussed before.

Would you like to get an acknowledgement for signal handler problems
from people in other discussion groups like "comp.programming.threads"?
