David's signal changes broke libthr. This is not his fault. The original implementation of sigtimedwait was broken and jdp (John Polstra) had worked up patches to fix it, but David beat him to it :-). Libthr depended on the old "broken" semantics of sigtimedwait, so any applications using libthr will be broken untill jdp commits the second part of his patch. Cheers. -- Mike Makonnen | GPG-KEY: http://www.identd.net/~mtm/mtm.asc mtm@identd.net | D228 1A6F C64E 120A A1C9 A3AA DAE1 E2AF DBCC 68B9 mtm@FreeBSD.Org| FreeBSD - The Power To Serve
