From: Doug Gwyn (VLD/VMB) <gwyn@brl-vld> The manual says that signal # i is represented by the i-th bit in the signal mask. This is true only if you consider the low-order bit to be the first bit. In C, signal # i corresponds to (1L << (i-1)). The lint library /usr/lib/lint/llib-lc has sigvec(2) all wrong. See accompanying article for a replacement C library signal(2) routine.
