Do we assume > HAVE_SIGACTION for all systems these days? I think we use Gnulib to ensure that sigaction is available, at least as a wrapper. On the other hand apparently that doesn't ensure that SA_SIGINFO is available on mingw :/ Too bad. If we find a way to make this work reliably on POSIX I guess we could have it work there but not yet on mingw. > The handler setup code is outside of scmsig.c, so there will be > conflicts with the save/restore mechanisms. For example, > scm_restore_signals won’t re-establish that handler. Good point! It seems this patch is but half-baked :) Andy
