  Gnulib module: signal-h
  
  Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  @code{volatile sig_atomic_t} is rejected by older compilers on some
  platforms:
  AIX.
  @item
  @code{sigset_t} is missing on some platforms:
  MSVC 9.
  @item
  @code{sigset_t} is only declared in <sys/types.h> on some platforms:
  mingw.
  @item
  @code{struct sigaction} and @code{siginfo_t} are missing on some
  platforms:
  mingw, MSVC 9.
  @item
  @code{struct sigaction} lacks the @code{sa_sigaction} member on some
  platforms:
  Irix 5.3, Interix 3.5.
  @item
  The type @code{pid_t} is not defined on some platforms:
  MSVC 9.
  @item
  The signal @code{SIGPIPE} is not defined on some platforms:
  mingw, MSVC 9.
  @item
  The macro @code{SA_NODEFER} is not defined on some platforms:
  Interix 3.5.
  @item
  The macros @code{SA_RESETHAND} and @code{SA_RESTART} are not defined
  on some platforms:
  NonStop.
  @item
  The type @code{sighandler_t} (a GNU extension) is not defined on most non-glibc
  platforms:
  MacOS X 10.5, FreeBSD 6.0, NetBSD 5.0, OpenBSD 3.8, AIX 5.1, HP-UX 11,
  IRIX 6.5, OSF/1 5.1, Solaris 11 2010-11, Cygwin, mingw, MSVC 9, Interix 3.5, BeOS.

  Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  Many signals are not defined on some platforms:
  mingw, MSVC 9.
  @item
  The macros @code{SIGRTMIN} and @code{SIGRTMAX} expand to an expression of type
  @code{long} instead of @code{int} on some platforms:
  OSF/1 5.1.
  @item
  The macro @code{SIGBUS} is set to the same value as @code{SIGSEGV},
  rather than being a distinct signal, on some platforms:
  Haiku.
