Also, in the list of system calls which can be interrupted by a signal (and hence return EINTR), select() is not listed even though man select clearly lists EINTR as a possible return value for when "A signal was delivered before the time limit expired and before any of the selected events occurred" This is sigaction.2,v 1.19 1998/09/09 20:44:51 brian Exp If I'm not mistaken about this, I would be glad to submit the necessary patches.
