POSIX specifically says that the signal mask is per thread. I'd be very surprised if the 1:1 sigmask/sigpending stuff was wrong. I don't think signal handling in M:N has really been totally worked out. Their concerns were more like 'how do we do this given the new signal restructuring' Perhaps I should start quoting posix. I wonder what my legal rights are given the copyright. hm.. Cheers, Jeff
