I took a look on HPUX 10.20 (gaur's host):
* SIGIO exists, but signal.h only defines it with
-D_INCLUDE_HPUX_SOURCE which we don't use.
* I found I_SETSIG, but ...
$ grep -r SETSIG /usr/include
/usr/include/sys/stropts.h:#define I_SETSIG _IO('S', 9) /* request
SIGPOLL signal on events */
stropts.h seems to be for a feature called "streams", which is
probably nonstandard enough that we don't want to deal with it.
So I think the short answer on this platform is that if you conditionalize
on #ifdef SIGIO then it will just not do it, and we should be fine.
Can't say about HPUX 11.
