>> what exactly is signal 4? >>From <sys/signal.h>: >... >#define SIGILL 4 /* illegal instruction (not reset when caught) */ This comment doesn't seem to have been changed since prehistoric times. All signals are "not reset when caught" in FreeBSD, unless the recently introduced SA_RESETHAND is used to break them. The comment is now wrong as well as misleading, since SA_RESETHAND may be used to break SIGILL :-). Bruce
