             Subject: [ID 20010307.005] POSIX::sigaction has various problems
             From: anders@broadcom.com

             Currently the sigaction.t test #6 fails (and is fudged to look
             like an "ok") in Linux (at least in Debian 2.2 Linux 2.4.2 x86).
             This may well be a genuine bug in Linux sigaction() (since at
             least Tru64, Solaris, and HP-UX disagree with Linux).
             Anyone with POSIX / SUSv2 tome handy?  The problem is that
             the flags of the oldaction don't match with the flags in
             the previously installed disposition.

             If references (are overloaded) and can be directly stringified,
             show that instead of "stringified".
