Thanks. I removed that number (it's easy enough to find), replaced
"underdocumented" with "unspecified" (a word from the later edition of
Stevens) and added a line break to break up that final paragraph, and
pushed. Time to upgrade my treeware copy of that book...
One thing I worried about while writing that text: why is it OK that
win32_port.h redefines SIG_DFL etc, if they might be exposed to the
system signal()? But it seems we picked the same numerical values. A
little weird, but not going to break anything.
