EINTR handling suggested by bde@freebsd.org). Code cleanup: 1. Add missing return type. 2. Replace 'union wait' by int. 3. Use Posix-style signal handling instead of signal(). 4. Use fork() instead of deprecated vfork(). 5. Block signals before fork()'ing, instead of after. 6. Return -1 if fork() fails, instead of 0. 7. Add EINTR handling for waitpid() call. Also add claim of Posix conformance to man page. Revision Changes Path 1.3 +3 -0 src/lib/libc/stdlib/system.3 1.2 +33 -18 src/lib/libc/stdlib/system.c
