        share/man/man7/signal.7: revision 1.28

signal(7): Clarify quirky SysV-inspired SIGCHLD semantics.

Suggest a portable alternative approach for detaching subprocesses.

Break wall of text into paragraphs while here.

signal(7): Clarify semantics of SIGCHLD with SIG_IGN or SA_NOCLDWAIT.

The semantics is not just a nonportable hack for SysV compatibility;
it is enshrined in POSIX.
