Yes, root-0.01 will be obsolete faster than I want to. I've fixed
a bug in the libc/kernel signal handlers. The problem was that some
routines assumed that sizeof(sigset_t) == 8 while it really should
be 16 because (remember that we're sys-five'ish!) of sigset_t defined
as:
typedef sigset_t {
int __sigbits[4];
}
The fixed kernel now overwrites a little bit too much memory when it
copies a sigset_t to usermem. Yikes.
Ok, I think I'll cheat a bit to keep the user stuff at live ...
