Thanks.
It's good that I can say "Oh, I think this is the part that is
broken, but I am going to bed" to find the problem solved by
capable others when I wake up the next day. Global distributed
development process at the finest, although I suspect Jason,
Linus and myself are all in the same timezone ;-)
Did you mean this as a real change or a demonstration? The
sigaction change is a real fix, but somehow I find this one
similar to the "(void*) NULL" thing you objected earlier (which
was not merged because I agreed with your argument)...
