POSIX has the %SIGRT hash for a couple of years now (3609ea0d), but I'm not sure it should. I'm not sure what the purpose of it is exactly, it's pretty much %SIG except that it uses unsafe signals. Also, it uses its own *undocumented* key naming scheme (which makes me suspect it's not being used at all), written in perl4 style and rather buggy. Quite frankly I don't see how anyone could make a working program with this. I feel it'd be best to deprecate it. LeonThread Next
