SYSV vs BSD confusion

Tue, 10 Sep 96 17:31:04 CST


Hello,


There has been some confusion about detecting BSD style signals versus 
SYSV style. I have updated the configure script to be less fascist about 
BSD and hopefully this fixes the problems.

Get it from:

ftp://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/home/janjaap/updates/

Now, hopefully, FreeBSD is considered BSD again (Peter?)
I think SunOS and Solaris are BSD variants too, right?

If this still doesn't work, I would like to see your  and 
 header files.

The problem is that some SYSV systems #define these BSD signals but don't 
support them unless you link -lbsd, so I made BSD detection more strict (so 
strict in fact that FreeBSD was no longer considered BSD ;-)

Hope this helps,

JanJaap
