Hi folks,

I have just coded something on my Mac with signal 
funcionalities. On my machine (OS X 10.3) it compiles 
without problems, but on a FreeBSD 5.2.1 machine I get an 
error. The compiler says:

main.c:10: error: invalid initializer
*** Error code 1


My Code was:

10: sigset_t sig = SIGALRM;


As I said, on a Mac it compiles well, but the BSD-machine 
is giving the named error. I think there must be a type 
mismatch, but I cannot find any declaration for sigset_t 
in the include dir.

A piece of test code gives no problems:


#include <signal.h>

main () {
   sigset_t sig;
}


Does anyone have a solution for this problem?
