Subject: Error Message: "trap: Sigaction system call failed"

While trying to compile msql-3.0-beta on my i386 NetBSD-1.0 (from the dual-
floppies only installation disks) system, I got the error message: "trap:
Sigaction system call failed" when trying to "make all" after running the
"setup" script.  "./makegen/makegen" then repeatedly reports the same error
and then the make fails.  I checked the msql directory tree but found no
match on the error message, so I suspect it is from the kernel?  If anyone
has any suggestions as to the issuer of the error message (msql vs kernel)
or to what I should do about it, I would be glad to hear them.  Otherwise 
I will continue to try tracking it down and post back if I solve it.  Thanks
in advance for any help!
