Re: lib/41085: sigaction returns EINVAL instead of -1



That's really weird... At some time (before netbsd-4) the binary
layout of "struct sigaction" changed, because sigset_t was
expanded to make room for more than 32 signals. There is a
compatibility stub for old binaries, you'll get that if
you don't include the header which redirects to the current
version. In that case, a linker warning should be issued,
recommending to include <signal.h>. Is that perhaps what
happens here?

best regards
Matthias
