David's signal changes broke libthr. This is not his fault. The original
implementation of sigtimedwait was broken and jdp (John Polstra) had worked up
patches to fix it, but David beat him to it :-). Libthr depended on the old
"broken" semantics of sigtimedwait, so any applications using libthr will be
broken untill jdp commits the second part of his patch.

Cheers.
