I don't understand why JA thinks this is a hack.  Their current
method doesn't work, or at least isn't portable.  I've tried this
on Solaris 10, and it works just as it does in FreeBSD.  Test
program included after signature.

   $ ./test_sigprocmask
   Sending signal 16
   Got signal 16, blocked: true
   Blocking signal 16 using method 0
   Handled signal 16, blocked: false

   Sending signal 16
   Got signal 16, blocked: true
   Blocking signal 16 using method 1
   Handled signal 16, blocked: true
